The importance of software testing

An imperfect software application can have a huge effect on revenue generation, reliability and reputation in the long run. So, before delivering software to a customer, every company must ensure that it works flawlessly, that the product meets all specifications or requirements. There are many cases where minor flaws in the …

Software and its classification: what are the main types

Any software is divided according to the attributes of functionality and characteristics, licensing of use, as well as into varieties according to the grouped skills of the technique. The purpose of each of them is to fulfill the tasks and observe the interests of the person using the PC. By mode of …

Types of software: what are the types, classification

Even if it seems to us that the PC is much smarter than we are, it remains a lifeless “iron”, until programs are installed in it. It is thanks to them the technique begins to count, think and help with any array of data. In this article we will briefly list …

What is the importance of software architecture?

The requirements of modern software are becoming more and more complex as users expect more and more from applications. The capabilities of simple standalone desktop applications are no longer sufficient for most commercial and business situations. In a world of advanced connectivity, applications must interact with other applications and services, as well as run in different environments, such as the cloud, and on portable devices. Common monolithic architectures of the past have been replaced by component-based, service-oriented software that uses platforms, operating systems, host applications and networks to implement functions that were unknown just a few years ago.

These challenges affect not only the architecture, but also the deployment, maintenance, and administration of software. The total cost of software ownership now consists largely of costs incurred after deployment.

An application with a well-designed architecture will provide the lowest total cost of ownership by reducing the cost and time required to deploy the application, make it work, update to meet changing requirements, and troubleshoot problems. Administration and user support will also be simplified.

Successful software must also meet several important criteria. It must ensure security so that the application and its data are protected from malicious attacks and accidental errors. It must be resilient and reliable to minimize failures and associated costs.

It should operate within the necessary parameters to meet user requirements, such as maximum response time or a certain workload. It should be easy to support to reduce administration and support costs and expandable enough to include inevitable changes and upgrades that will be required over time.

There are some tradeoffs associated with all of these factors. For example, implementing the most secure mechanisms using sophisticated encryption will affect performance. Implementing multiple configuration settings and updates can make deployment and administration difficult. In addition, the more complex the architecture, the more expensive it is to implement. The right architecture should balance these factors to produce the optimal result for a given scenario.
