The architecture design process
Designing an architecture is a process that must include the following three important steps:
- Disclose: Find out the business concepts of the project and what kind of integrations they need. We must consider the functional and non-functional requirements of the business concepts.
- Organize: Organize and distribute the concepts across the Architecture Canvas layers.
- Assemble: Organize and match these concepts with recommended patterns. We must bear in mind that we must join concepts if they are conceptually related and we must separate them if they have different life cycles and/or are too complex.
At the end of these three steps comes one of the most important phases: iteration. We must iterate this cycle of steps as many times as necessary until we have a solid, understandable, and scalable architecture. Furthermore, we must bear in mind that an architecture is not immutable and we may have to repeat this process even during other...
