Systems Architecture Training : Principles and Practices
Systems Architecture Training: Principles and Practices covers principles, best practices and methods for technical System Architecture. Systems Architecture Training course presents a synthetic view including: techniques to identify system goals, objectives and boundaries; the creative process of functional specification; and the analysis of complexity and methods of system decomposition and re-integration. An architecture is “the fundamental organization of a system, embodied in its components, their relationships to each other and the environment, and the principles governing its design and evolution.
Learning Objectives
What you’ll learn in the System Architecture: Principles and Practices course:
- System Architecture Definitions
- What system architecture is
- Apply the principles, processes, and tools of system architecting
- Synthesis of a system/product Development process
- Architecting and Architectural analysis
- How the system architecture influences system, software and solution architects
- How to achieve system partitioning, non-functional requirements qualities such as security, performance, availability and reliability
- How to use system functions and system specifications to drive system design and architecture
- The importance of modeling and documenting system architecture
- Structure and lead all the early, conceptual phases of the system development process,
- Methods for evaluating system architecture
- Ways to make architecture reuse work for your organization
- Support the system architecture process through development, deployment, operation and evolution.
