This instructor-led, live training in US (online or onsite) is designed for software engineers and developers seeking to plan, design, oversee, and manage software development through formal architectural methods.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Recognize the significance of architectural discipline in software development.
• Apply architectural methods to enhance development practices.
• Utilize the architecting process for management and evaluation of technical workflows.
• Structure complex applications through systematic architectural approaches.
• Implement decision-making frameworks to resolve issues and define accountabilities within development teams.
• Assume confident ownership of technical decisions.
• Visualize system architectures using established models and diagrams.
• Apply standards and risk assessment to build resilient and agile architectures.

This 8-hour instructor-led course for government focuses on aligning software project execution with architectural strategy. Participants will learn to integrate architectural decisions with project goals using C4, UML, and Archimate, acquiring practical skills essential for modern development environments.

This program is structured to deliver a comprehensive mastery of software architecture principles and their strategic implementation within cloud environments, with a specific focus on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and the Java language. The curriculum enables participants to design, engineer, and deploy scalable, resilient, and high-performance applications for government operations by leveraging AWS services and Java programming standards.

As distributed systems increase in complexity, the focal point of architectural challenges shifts from individual applications to the collective architecture governing a suite of interconnected systems. This curriculum addresses the intersection of Software Architecture and Technical Enterprise Architecture, emphasizing the critical, yet often insufficiently documented, interdependence between these disciplines. For instance, decomposing a complex monolithic application into two distinct systems interacting via web services necessitates significant modifications to both the internal logic of the new components and the external architectural relationships connecting them.

This course will examine the strategic trade-offs involved in these decisions, reviewing prevailing patterns and solutions for managing complex system environments and the communication mechanisms operating within and across these frameworks, tailored for government operational standards.
