Developing software products and platforms has never been more interesting than it is today. It’s fascinating to see users applying software products and platforms in ways never anticipated before by the respective designers and developers. Many of these software products and platforms evolve and adapt to yet undiscovered use cases. As a result, software architecture and design needs to be highly configurable, extensible, pluggable, and appropriately granular to allow this to happen. Apart from this, software products and platforms are expected to help businesses in serving billons of users, to collect and process huge amounts of data, and be highly secure. Software products and platforms are expected to be a part of a complex mesh of interconnected software systems. It’s difficult to imagine creating a successful product and platform without a formal architectural activity. Architecture provides a clear technical vision, mitigates risks early in the project life cycle, and helps to meet the requirements of adaptability, scalability, maintainability, reliability and security.
