Software architecture has a great strategic value that is why it is an essential phase of the software development life cycle. Proper architecture provides conditions to make sure that a software system can be of great value over the course of many years. In essence, software architecture defines the core software components, relations between them, and peculiarities of both components and relations. It serves as a blueprint that points out tasks that must be performed in the course of project development.There is a great deal of software architecture patterns, and it is important to use the one that complies with your business goals, functional requirements, and non-functional requirements. With our architecture design services, your team will have an effective plan of software development complying with your requirements.

Software architecture design is a rather tricky process. It is essential to have a helicopter view in order to address all long-term goals. The process of software architecture design includes comprehensive research, a thorough study of project requirements, gap analysis, and diverse estimations. Our architecture design services help you review thoroughly functional and non-functional requirements of your project and design a corresponding software architecture. In general, the whole architectural design workflow consists of the following stages:
1. Analysis
First and foremost, our architecture designers collect your functional and non-functional project requirements. After a comprehensive analysis, experts propose an architectural solution on the ground of the most appropriate software architecture pattern and technologies as well as provide you with an accurate cost and time estimation.
2. Design
As soon as the analysis stage is completed and the architecture pattern and technologies are agreed on, actual development begins.
3. Testing
We meticulously check whether the software works well through a few evaluation rounds that are executed during and after the software design phase.
4. Maintenance
Due to a well-thought-out software design, it can be easily redesigned or upgraded afterward. Our experts can maintain your software architecture by adding new modules and optimizing existing ones.
Factors Affecting Project Costs
The cost of software architecture projects can vary widely. To determine the estimated cost we need to evaluate a set of your requirements, including:
Project scope and its degree of complexity;
A set of chosen technologies;
The urgency of project completion;
Chosen engagement model, e.g. we offer Fixed Price, Time and Material, and Dedicated Team;
The necessity to customize generic architectural components.
Aspects Impacting Lead Time
Project timeframe heavily depends on the following factors:
Project requirements;
Targeted deadlines;
Team personnel;
Technology and platform availability;
An architectural pattern.
