Torrent description

In this anticipated video series, Neal Ford and Mark Richards examine the responsibilities of a software architect, specifically the knowledge and skills you need to be effective in that role.

The first video, Understanding the Basics, not only focuses on development techniques, but also pinpoints the skills you need to be a successful team leader. Youll learn about the four main aspects of a software architect, and quickly discover the difference between architecture decisions and technology decisions. In this video, youll explore:

Soft Skills

Investigate techniques for communicating effectively as a team leader
Measure your technical knowledge, including technical depth vs. technical breadth, and multi-platform skills
Discover how to increase your expertise of business domains
Learn how ensure a successful implementation by matching methodology with architecture
Architectural Techniques:

Make your architecture more adaptable to changes in business and technology
Explore various techniques and patterns for integrating multiple applications and databases
Get a true understanding of enterprise architecture by examining the context and goals of an EA implementation
The topics in this video set the stage necessary to understand the enterprise architecture approaches and strategies demonstrated in the series second video: Software Architecture Fundamentals: A Deeper Dive.

Software Architect places in the top ten of most annual surveys of best jobs, yet no clear path exists from Developer to Architect. Why arent there more books and training materials to fill this demand? This video series by Neal Ford and Mark Richards starts filling the information gap.

Software architecture is a massive multidisciplinary subject, covering many roles and responsibilities, making it challenging to teach because so much context is required for the interesting subjects. Its also a fast moving discipline, where entire suites of best practices become obsolete overnight.

In two videosUnderstanding the Basics and A Deeper Divethis series covers a vast array of subjects, all grounded with the common theme of architecture, emphasizing techniques to allow architecture for change. Each installment covers topics in application, integration, and enterprise architecture.

A Deeper Dive advances the discussion from Developer to Architect by covering application, integration, and enterprise architecture. We discuss evaluating architectures (including making formal processes like ATAM more agile and effective), and various architectural frameworks:

Application architecture: Understand the impact that modern engineering practices like Continuous Delivery have on architectural decisions. Youll learn about different abstractions, their pros and cons, and how to effectively choose between them.
Integration architecture: Examine the pros and cons of SOAP vs REST, as well as integration hubs like ESBs as an architectural pattern, and some common integration patterns.
Enterprise architecture: Delve into centralized and decentralized approaches, 4 types of strategies for decision making, and evolutionary architecture and emergent design.
Discussion augments the material throughout, providing differing opinions and contexts on many subjects.
