Salary polls throughout the world consistently position software architects in the top ten best careers, yet there is no meaningful guidance to assist engineers become architects. Fundamentals of Software Architecture is the first to provide a complete overview of the numerous facets of software architecture. Architectural traits, architectural patterns, component determination, diagramming and presenting architecture, evolutionary architecture, and many other topics will be covered by both aspiring and experienced architects.
Mark Richards and Neal Ford, both hands-on practitioners who have taught software architecture classes professionally for many years, concentrate on architecture principles that apply to all technology stacks. You will investigate software architecture in a contemporary context, taking into consideration all of the advancements of the last decade.
Fundamentals of Software Architecture investigates:
- Architecture patterns: The technical basis for many architectural decisions
- Components: Identification, coupling, cohesion, partitioning, and granularity
- Soft skills: Effective team management, meetings, negotiation, presentations, and more
- Modernity: Engineering practices and operational approaches that have changed radically in the past few years
- Architecture as an engineering discipline: Repeatable results, metrics, and concrete valuations that add rigor to software architecture
