Inhaltsangabe

The field of software architecture continues to grow in acceptance and

importance. However, this burgeoning discipline has thus far lacked an

authoritative treatment that helps its practitioners gain valuable perspective and

a thorough understanding of the disparate viewpoints that project stakeholders

bring to the project. In this new book written by two practicing software

architects, the field of software architecture now has an invaluable resource for

designing and implementing successful software architectures.

Colleagues, business management, and ultimately customers appreciate the

benefit of solid software systems architecture, and this new book helps the

architect deliver it. This software architecture handbook will be referred to time

and again. It is a single source of proven practices and valuable advice that will

help the software architect shepherd a project through its entire lifecycle.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Software Systems Architecture is a practitioner-oriented guide to designing and implementing effective architectures for information systems. It is both a readily accessible introduction to software architecture and an invaluable handbook of well-established best practices. It shows why the role of the architect is central to any successful information-systems development project, and, by presenting a set of architectural viewpoints and perspectives, provides specific direction for improving your own and your organization's approach to software systems architecture.

With this book you will learn how to

  • Design an architecture that reflects and balances the different needs of its stakeholders
  • Communicate the architecture to stakeholders and demonstrate that it has met their requirements
  • Focus on architecturally significant aspects of design, including frequently overlooked areas such as performance, resilience, and location
  • Use scenarios and patterns to drive the creation and validation of your architecture
  • Document your architecture as a set of related views
  • Use perspectives to ensure that your architecture exhibits important qualities such as performance, scalability, and security

The architectural viewpoints and perspectives presented in the book also provide a valuable long-term reference source for new and experienced architects alike.

Whether you are an aspiring or practicing software architect, you will find yourself referring repeatedly to the practical advice in this book throughout the lifecycle of your projects.
