[ED: Hardcover], [PU: Addison-Wesley Longman, Amsterdam / PEV], As systems grow increasingly large, complex, and costly, software architecture becomes ever more crucial. Software Systems Architecture, 2/e, is the leading practitioner's guide to designing and implementing effective information system architectures. Authors Nick Rozanski and Eoin Woods have systematically updated their highly-praised first edition, while retaining the clarity, accessibility, objectivity, and practical focus that have made it indispensable to working architects. Rozanski and Woods focus on real-world issues, superbly blend business and technical concerns, and offer insights that are relevant in all environments, regardless of methodology. Their extensive updates to this edition include: A new System Context Viewpoint, added to the authors' well-received architectural metamodel Expanded discussions of using architectural principles to provide traceability and expose decision-making rationales A discussion of how agile development and architecture can work together Updated, expanded description of enterprise architecture Expanded discussion of relationships between requirements and architecture New "Questions for Discussion" Updated bibliography and reading lists Product Description Software Systems Architecture, Second Edition is a highly regarded, 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. With this book you will learn how to Design and communicate an architecture that reflects and balances the different needs of its stakeholders 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 Reflecting new standards and developments in the field, this new edition extends and updates much of the content, and Adds a "system context viewpoint" that documents the system's interactions with its environment Expands the discussion of architectural principles, showing how they can be used to provide traceability and rationale for architectural decisions Explains how agile development and architecture can work together Positions requirements and architecture activities in the project context Presents a new lightweight method for architectural validation 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.
