Synopsis

Architect the conversion of the requirements into an architecture and design that will become the blueprint for the solution being created< About This Book * Translate requirements created by functional analysts into the architecture for that solution, *Learn to use a structured approach to assist with solution design to create consistency, *Learn to reduce project risk and improve ROI, Design solutions for all aspects ranging from concept definition, requirements analysis, handover to IT ops to business-as-usual ongoing maintenance. Who This Book Is For This book is intended for lead architects, project managers and lead developers and will acquaint them with best practices and design considerations to achieve easy solutions to solve architectural problems. What You Will Learn * Define a set of unique business functions to fully address business needs. *Identify the optimum level of Engineering required for your solution. *Create a decision matrix to help you pick the best fit technology. *Ensure effective use of IT resources. *Identify architecture objectives that serve you both short term and long term. *Secure your data without hampering of organization productivity. *Avoid building a Silo' system. In Detail Solution Architecture is a framework to produce solid IT solutions that fully meet business needs, within budget, deploy on schedule, easy to maintain, and use fewer resources. It is problem solving with the least cost and the most benefits. A good Solution Architect must therefore articulate business value realized over technical implementations. This book describes an approach to creating a high-level architecture for a complete end-to-end solution design. We begin with a little introduction on a solutions architect's role, what it takes to become one and what are the essential skills one needs to scale up to the role. You will then learn about BASE, an architecture concept of operations that helps produce solid IT solutions. As the next step we look at 3 different SDLC methods, namely the Waterfall, Iterative and Agile and then identify the technology required. We then move on to modeling our business its data and then architecting the database. Next, we set about to create the application tier which glues together the business, data and technology tiers. Having successfully architected our application, we look at securing it and then integrating the same both from external and internal perspective. Lastly, we learn about some practical reference architectures namely the JEE, Microservices, and Big Data Analytics. We wrap up with a discussion on common pitfalls and tips to avoid them. By end of the book you will have identified the answer to a business problem and arrived at a set of solutions and by building its components step by step.
