Just as you can't build a house without an architecture, architectures are also essential for systems. The architecture is the skeleton of our system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architectures have been around for thousands of years, and system architecture is also over half a century old. But architectures are more important today than ever for several reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is architecture?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The architecture is the structure of the system. The book Just Enough Systems Engineering<\/a> has a chapter on the subject that is well worth reading. In particular, every system has an architecture: this can be created by chance or deliberately designed. Of course, planned architectures are generally much better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architectures<\/a> have always ensured that the parts of a system work together optimally. They are also extremely useful for work planning, as they allow the individual parts of the system to be decoupled. Furthermore, architectures can ensure that \"best practices\" that have proven themselves in practice are taken into account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But architectures are becoming increasingly important in systems engineering. So important, in fact, that the wrong choice can threaten a company's existence. Here are the most important ones:

An early market entry can make the difference between success and failure. And there are now standard architectures for many areas that save a huge amount of work. For example, there are numerous frameworks that can be used to implement complete web applications in just a few days. There are also architectures in the hardware sector, for example for chipsets or connectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architectures also accelerate development through reuse and make it possible to deal effectively with variants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
