Architecture
Description
The Architecture course focuses on advanced principles, patterns, and practices for designing, building, and managing modern large-scale software architecture. The course explores architectural styles, communication models, cloud-based approaches, and data-driven systems prevalent in contemporary distributed environments. Emphasis is placed on architectural decision-making, scalability, security, performance, and maintenance, while introducing industry-standard technologies, frameworks, and workflows. The goal is to provide students with a holistic architectural perspective aligned with real-world software engineering challenges.
