What they need is a template that enables simple and efficient software architecture documentation. arc42 by Example shows how it's done through several real-world examples.\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach example in the book, whether it is a chess engine, a huge CRM system, or a cool web system, starts with a brief description of the problem domain and the quality requirements. Then, you'll discover the system context with all the external interfaces. You'll dive into an overview of the solution strategy to implement the building blocks and runtime scenarios. The later chapters also explain various cross-cutting concerns and how they affect other aspects of a program.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat you will learn\u003c/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eUtilize arc42 to document a system's physical infrastructure\n\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn how to identify a system's scope and boundaries\n\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreak a system down into building blocks and illustrate the relationships between them\n\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscover how to describe the runtime behavior of a system\n\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnow how to document design decisions and their reasons\n\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore the risks and technical debt of your system\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWho this book is for\u003c/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is for software developers and solutions architects who are looking for an easy, open-source tool to document their systems.
