1. Software Architecture – What is Software Architecture?

Introduction

I have wanted to do something like this for a long time.

Here goes…

Software application architecture is the process of defining a structured solution that meets all of the  technical and operational requirements, while optimizing common quality attributes such as performance, security, and manageability. It involves a series of decisions based on a wide range of factors, and each of these decisions can have considerable impact on the quality, performance, maintainability, and overall success of the application.
