Description
*Become a great software architect-hands-on! *Define architectures that leverage today's best design patterns *Maximize scalability and technical flexibility *Lead your technical organization to successful implementation Your hands-on "field manual" for becoming a great software architect! This hands-on "field manual" gives developers the essential skills they need to survive and thrive as software architects! You'll find insightful, real-world coverage of everything from design patterns to prototyping, business case development to leadership. Leading software architects Raphael Malveau and Thomas Mowbray share profound insights and practical solutions for all the key challenges of architectures using objects, components, and distributed Internet computing, showing how to avoid time-consuming pitfalls and costly errors.You'll master proven methods for: *Identifying the best architectural model for any project *Executing heavyweight or lightweight approaches to software architecture *Addressing scalability and long-term business flexibility *Making the most of abstraction, refactoring, and architectural prototyping *Leveraging superior design patterns to improve your implementations With hands-on exercises, real-life war stories, and a take-no-prisoners attitude, Software Architect Bootcamp won't just help you become a great software architect: it'll help you become a true technical leader of your organization.

Persons
RAPHAEL MALVEAU is a hands-on software architect and consultant in Alexandria, Virginia, USA. Malveau formerly served as Chief Scientist at Eidea Labs and Component Management Group, where he established advanced component architecture best practices that led to the creation of several industry-leading software products. His component software development principles are the basis of advanced architecture courses taught worldwide through the Component Academy. Malveau has co-authored two previous technology books and numerous software publications.
DR. THOMAS MOWBRAY, Ph.D., is Chairman of Component Management Group, Founding Board Member of Worldwide Institute of Software Architects, and a practicing software architect who has worked on media asset management, geographic information systems, telecommunications systems, and financial accounting systems. As an Honorary Fellow of the Object Management Group, Dr. Mowbray co-authored the world's first software standard for computer accounting and is author of four books on distributed componentware and software architecture.
