Software Systems Architecture, Second Edition is a highly regarded, practitioner-oriented guide to designing and implementing effective architectures for information systems. It is both a readily accessible introduction to software architecture and an invaluable handbook of well-established best practices.

With this book you will learn how to
o Design and communicate an architecture that reflects and balances the different needs of its stakeholders
o Focus on architecturally significant aspects of design, including frequently overlooked areas such as performance, resilience, and location
o Use scenarios and patterns to drive the creation and validation of your architecture
o Document your architecture as a set of related views

Reflecting new standards and developments in the field, this new edition extends and updates much of the content, and
o Adds a “system context viewpoint” that documents the system’s interactions with its environment
o Expands the discussion of architectural principles, showing how they can be used to provide traceability and rationale for architectural decisions
o Explains how agile development and architecture can work
o Positions requirements and architecture activities in the project context
o Presents a new lightweight method for architectural validation
