The Software Architecture & System Design Certified Course is designed to provide learners with the knowledge and skills to design scalable, maintainable, and efficient software systems. This program covers fundamental principles of software architecture, system decomposition, design patterns, scalability, security, and cloud-native architecture. With real-world case studies and hands-on projects, participants will learn how to analyze requirements, choose the right architectural styles, and implement best practices to build robust enterprise-level applications.
Module 1: Introduction to Software Architecture Definition, role, and responsibilities of a software architect Architecture vs. design vs. coding Architectural quality attributes (performance, scalability, maintainability, security, availability) Importance of architectural decisions in software lifecycle.
Module 2: Requirement Engineering & Architectural Thinking Functional vs. non-functional requirements Gathering and analyzing system requirements Trade-offs and prioritization in design decisions Use case analysis & system context diagrams.
Module 3: Architectural Styles Layered architecture Client-Server architecture Event-driven architecture Microservices architecture Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Monolith vs. distributed architecture.
Module 4: System Modeling & UML Use case diagrams for requirement capture Class diagrams for object-oriented design Sequence and activity diagrams Component and deployment diagrams Architecture documentation best practices.
Module 5: Design Patterns & Anti-Patterns Introduction to design patterns and when to use them Creational patterns (Singleton, Factory, Builder) Structural patterns (Adapter, Composite, Proxy) Behavioral patterns (Observer, Strategy, Command) Enterprise integration patterns Common architecture anti-patterns to avoid.
Module 6: Scalability & Performance Engineering Principles of scalable system design Caching mechanisms & database indexing Load balancing techniques Horizontal vs. vertical scaling SQL vs. NoSQL database strategies Designing for concurrency & parallelism.
Module 7: Distributed Systems & Cloud Architecture Key concepts of distributed systems CAP theorem & consistency models Fault tolerance and redundancy Microservices deployment with Docker & Kubernetes Cloud-native architecture on AWS, Azure, GCP Event streaming with Kafka & message queues.
Module 8: Security in System Design Principles of secure architecture Authentication & authorization (OAuth, JWT, SSO) Data encryption & secure communication (SSL/TLS) Threat modeling & penetration points Security compliance (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS).
Module 9: DevOps & Continuous Architecture DevOps culture & principles CI/CD pipelines and architecture integration Observability: logging, monitoring, alerting Chaos engineering & reliability testing Continuous feedback loops in evolving architecture.
Module 10: Capstone Project & Case Studies Case study: Netflix scalable streaming architecture Case study: Uber ride-sharing microservices Case study: Amazon e-commerce architecture End-to-end architecture project (choose domain: e-commerce, banking, healthcare, or social media) Project presentation & peer review.
