A strategic pillar for your technology projects
Designing a high-performance, reliable and durable application depends largely on its software architecture. This determines how the various components of a system interact and evolve over time.
It structures your project while meeting crucial functional and non-functional requirements. A well thought-out architecture increases your chances of technological and commercial success.

What makes a good software architecture
An efficient architecture rests on several foundations.
- Scalability: The ability to grow and adapt to new needs
- Simplicity: To facilitate development and understanding of the system
- Maintainability: To ensure the longevity of investments
- Compatibility: With existing environments and systems
- Interconnectivity: To promote integration with other services or platforms
Key questions to guide your choices
- Every project is unique. To guide the design of your architecture, it’s essential to answer certain strategic questions.
- What are the main components of your system?
- How do they interact with each other?
- What non-functional features (performance, security, etc.) should be prioritized?
- What are the technological risks and uncertainties?
- On which environments should the application be deployed?
- How much data needs to be processed?
- What standards must be met?
- Are certain components protected by intellectual property rights?
- How can the architecture be clearly represented to stakeholders?
- How will your system evolve?
- Are personal or sensitive data involved?
- What security measures need to be integrated into the architecture?
