Software Architecture


In the lecture of Code Craft we can see how software architecture is a high relevance topic for computer science, talking about how its evolution has increased the investigation and study cases.

"Initial system design"... this is what Goodliffe mentions architecture is. This takes us to three pillars or cases in which architecture has jurisdiction: validation, discrimination and communication. Previous cases have direct impact in how you can avoid work duplication, redundancy, and wasting efforts (validation)

When having proper software architecture, you improve communication as this helps with a high level view of what may be a complicated system or difficult to read to all stakeholders in a project.

As for discrimination, it says how some situations can generate problems while decision making, having this concerns validated we can then discriminate some options.

Mainly, the purpose of the lecture is to understand the importance and objective of software architecture.

Microservices

From monolithic to microservices . This is dangerous and even though this is how my mind works, sometimes, may be limiting our minds. The idea of microservices, I believe is an amazing approach to development, and much more currently that we have whatever/anything/everything as a service , companies tend to have cloud solutions and plug n' play compatibility with different services. The microservices architecture must be an approach that jumps into your mind immediately whenever you think of implementing something in a company, or as a developer, developing for a company. Nothing's more scalable and easier than services connected in between just by API endpoints. I'll defend microservices architecture all the way. (:

Ready player one

I have many conflicted feelings about this book, I love the idea of a fantasy world that your mind is the limit-ish (let's don't count gaming experience restrictions set up by the particular activities in Oasis), but hate the why  people love this same idea. The Oasis is an infinite, amazing playground, it may be a shelter because you're having a bad time, it may be a way to get distracted of how your boss treated your that one meeting or it could mean that the real world just isn't enough for you. We're not that far from getting there, it's not that visible but people have gotten to that point, people spending thousands of dollars in Candy Crush, people more worried about their Second Life's dog than their real life pug, or people dying due to a burnout playing League of Legends or World of Warcraft... all of these great games, to be honest, but with that greatness comes a great vulnerability and ease for people prone to addictions. Still out of this id...

Wargames

Sci-fi, I feel is just opening a window to the future. Many things considered sci-fi in 80s movies are quite a reality now, you can pick almost any movie prior to the 90s and you will most likely find the similarities immediately. The idea of having a teenager hack into a government's pc is not quite far from reality, in the recent 20 years we have found things like people hacking into systems accessing IP cameras or back when Valve was on their younger phases, a teenager found a way to get into their system and get a game's source code, he only wanted to see what the game was like... just like in Wargames. I mean he didn't almost cause a nuclear war, but he got a big scare out of it. Wargames not only is a quite enjoyable movie, it's a lesson in some subjects such as security, responsibility or accountability of matters. This movie raises the question... are we going to be able to program in such a way that our own logic doesn't play against us? (insert movie...
