Software Systems Architecture: Working With Stakeholders Using Viewpoints and Perspectives, 2nd edition

Software Systems Architecture is a highly regarded, practitioner-oriented guide to designing and implementing effective architectures for information systems. It is both a readily accessible introduction to software architecture and an invaluable handbook of well-established best practices.
With this book you will learn how to

• Design and communicate an architecture that reflects and balances the different needs of its stakeholders
• Focus on architecturally significant aspects of design, including frequently overlooked areas such as performance, resilience, and location
• Use scenarios and patterns to drive the creation and validation of your architecture
• Document your architecture as a set of related views

Reflecting new standards and developments in the field, this new edition extends and updates much of the content, and

• Adds a “system context viewpoint” that documents the system’s interactions with its environment
• Expands the discussion of architectural principles, showing how they can be used to provide traceability and rationale for architectural decisions
