Book Description

  • Become a great software architect—hands-on!

  • Define architectures that leverage today's best design patterns

  • Maximize scalability and technical flexibility

  • Lead your technical organization to successful implementation

    • Your hands-on "field manual" for becoming a great software architect!

    This hands-on "field manual" gives developers the essential skills they need to survive and thrive as software architects! You'll find insightful, real-world coverage of everything from design patterns to prototyping, business case development to leadership.

    Leading software architects Raphael Malveau and Thomas Mowbray share profound insights and practical solutions for all the key challenges of architectures using objects, components, and distributed Internet computing, showing how to avoid time-consuming pitfalls and costly errors. You'll master proven methods for:

  • Identifying the best architectural model for any project

  • Executing heavyweight or lightweight approaches to software architecture

  • Addressing scalability and long-term business flexibility

  • Making the most of abstraction, refactoring, and architectural prototyping

  • Leveraging superior design patterns to improve your implementations

    • With hands-on exercises, real-life war stories, and a take-no-prisoners attitude, Software Architect Bootcamp won't just help you become a great software architect: it'll help you become a true technical leader of your organization.
