Successfully integrate practical designs that support the full software lifecycle!

Designing Software Architectures, 2nd Edition, introduces a practical, step-by-step methodology for architecture design that any professional software engineer can use, with structured methods supported by reusable chunks of design knowledge and rich case studies that demonstrate how to use the methods.

This newly updated edition reflects how contemporary architects are designing systems. You will find new chapters on supporting business agility through API-centric design, deployability, cloud-based solutions, and technical debt in design. This edition places more emphasis on the design of APIs for distributed systems so you can make design decisions in systematic, repeatable, and cost-effective ways.

The Attribute-Driven Design method may not have changed since this book’s first printing, but almost everything else about the industry has. This book will help you become a better designer who can help pave the road from mediocrity to excellence and from a craft to a discipline of engineering.

In the Chapter 1 we provide an introduction to the topic of software architecture and architecture design. We briefly discuss what architecture is and why it is fundamental to take it into account when developing software systems. We also discuss the activities that are associated with the development of software architecture so that architectural design—which is the primary topic of this book—can be understood in the context of these activities. We also briefly discuss the role of the architect, who is the person responsible for creating the design. Finally, we introduce the Attribute-Driven Design (ADD) method, the architecture design method that we will discuss extensively in this book.

The new edition includes:

A clear explanation of the Attribute-Driven Design method
New chapters focused on the technical environments and contexts of contemporary design
Two new case studies on The Hotel Pricing System and Digital Twin Platform
Coverage of current architecture topics like cloud computing, DevOps, and large-scale systems
Methods to make architecture design agile and achievable
