Overview

At the heart of every well-engineered software system lies a software architecture. This course is tailored for students who wonder how to design architecture, what driving forces influence it, how to evaluate architecture, and what good architectural documentation looks like. We'll explore these concepts and their application in modern software architectures based on case studies from the industry. This course will also be helpful to prepare students for system design interviews.
