Book Description

Software architecture is the practice of implementing structures and systems that streamlines the software development process and improves the quality of the application. This book provides a hands-on approach to learning various architectural approaches that will help you develop and deliver high-quality products.

We will begin with learning how to transform user requirements into architectural needs and exploring the differences between functional and non-functional requirements. We will learn how to carefully choose a cloud solution for your infrastructure and provide some dos and don’ts that will help you manage your application in a cloud-based environment. We will present various techniques and processes such as DevOps, Microservices, and Continuous Integration and implement these using Microsoft technologies such as ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework, CosmosDB, and Azure DevOps. You will also learn about different testing frameworks and automation tools to ease your development efforts. Finally, we’ll learn about design patterns and various software approaches that will allow you to solve common problems faced during development.

By the end of the book, you will be able to develop and deliver highly scalable enterprise-ready applications that meet the customer’s business needs.
