Software architecture

This discipline defines the shape of a system by describing at a high level its components and their interactions.

Why software architecture is the foundation of an application?

Software architecture can be compared to house architecture—it's absolutely essential to define the shape of the system. It focuses both on the high-level structure and the low-level details, the same way that on a house plan you would see both the global shape with the layout of the spaces and the details such as outlets, light switches, etc. What does it entail?

  • Building a highly cohesive and loosely coupled system to ensure a seamless connection between services that need to communicate with each other
  • Choosing architectural patterns to solve specific challenges
  • Designing the data flow to establish the data lifecycle and the connection points.
