Course Description

Software architecture is the foundation of any successful software system, and is what making the software fast, reliable, secure and easy to maintain. Understanding how to design, evaluate, and improve software architecture is a crucial skill for any software professional. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to software architecture, covering essential concepts and best practices.

With over 20 years of experience as a software architect and instructor, and having trained over 300K students worldwide, I bring a practical, hands-on approach to this course. Participants will learn not only what software architecture is, but also how to think and act like an architect—making informed decisions that impact scalability, performance, security, and maintainability.

By the end of this course, participants will have a solid understanding of architectural principles and the ability to apply them to real-world projects.
