Overcoming architectural constraints
When designing an application architecture, the significant limitations are cost, time, budget, scope, schedule, and resources. Overcoming these constraints is a significant factor that must be considered while designing a solution. You should look at the limitations as challenges that can be overcome rather than obstacles, as challenges always push you to the limit of innovation.
A solutions architect needs to make suitable trade-offs while considering the constraints. For example, a high-performance application results in more cost when you need to add additional caching in multiple layers of architecture. However, sometimes, cost is more important than performance, primarily if a system is used by internal employees, which may not directly impact revenue. Sometimes, the market is more important than launching a fully featured product, and you need to make the trade-off between scope versus speed. In such scenarios, you can take the minimum...
