A logical architecture helps to visualize and communicate the application’s logical & functional components and depicts future state of the architecture meeting business requirements. A software architect often comes up with a logical architecture as an artifact during the architecture definition phase, which gets documented as part of software architecture document. At a later stage, logical architecture becomes an input to create physical architecture and also serves the following purpose:…
As a developer, there are many coding challenges and you solve them by applying many techniques such as refactoring, multi-threading, optimization for performance, transaction management, coding rules compliance etc. Each developer would aspire to become an architect in due course & find the path to be very challenging at times. Some people get guidance from their mentors & few learn it through training/certification, reading, social media, blogs etc. We define AJP…
