Together they will model the process the software must fulfil, and the means by which it will do so. At the highest level, the Software Architect will work with the sponsor to identify architectural requirements while the Business Analyst identifies the business requirements. Then matched with a Project Manager, will control the technology and flow of development while the Project Manager controls the timelines and risks. The Software Architect teamed with a Business Analyst will extract, define and create a software architecture to deliver your needs. IT failures are largely invisible to those outside the city walls. Now you may argue this is not quite the case, but no-one can be sure. The doors are not where we want them, and no-one measured a person to see if they would fit in. There in the midst of this rubble, picking a way through the web, walks the hastily hired architect with a simple brief: 'Please make our rubble into the glorious living spaces we imagined.' Before you enter the city, I should warn you, we haven't yet looked at the buildings. Worst of all is the unending string and continuous maintenance required to hold the buildings together. And as you know, the cars would rarely fit the roads. Traffic would flow, but only because someone had found a giant to lift cars from the end of one jam and place them at the foot of another. Ninety percent of the buildings would remain unfinished, or would have toppled to the ground as unsalvageable waste for want of better foundations. It may or may not include a water system, depending on whether or not one was asked for. Who needs software architects? If, for a fleeting moment, you imagine a city built the way we build our software, it would be a city of uniform greyness. This book will guide you to the skills you need to become a software architect and survive as one. The position of Software Architect, or a similar title, has been created by many organisations in the realisation that software development needs to be led by a single mind, or more accurately, by a single vision. Organisations determined to combat the problem of buildings falling on people’s heads. In doing so, we shall in turn take our lead from the practice of Architecture, when Architects formed themselves into This book is about how individuals can take the lead in realigning our development efforts to that promise. Unfortunately, in this high technology, leading edge, paradigm-shifting world of computing, we have forgotten the original promise of technology.
