Software Architecture
The software architecture of a system is the set of structures needed to reason about the system, which comprise software elements, relations among them and properties of both.
Software Architects designs complete systems.
A model simplifies the problem
Failure Risks
Designs
Slicing up the tasks and defining separate layers is the biggest challenge for the architect
Implementation stacks comes last

○ Has deep knowledge of the technologies.
● Solution architect.
○ Participates in discussions of business.
○ Creates connections between several systems.
○ Provides communication between several teams.
○ Designs connections between systems.

○ Acts as a universal soldier of business and technology.

○ Works with high-level abstractions of the created systems.
○ Provides technical communications throughout the company.
