    OH MY GOD! Thank you, thank you, after 20 years of searching you have described EXACTLY what I do in my job, who I am, my "tribe" if you will. I even work in the same industry sector (hospitality technology), but no-one has ever used the term 'Solution Architect' before. I have been a Software Engineer, Software Manager, R&D Manager, Technical Consultant, Project Manager, Product Manager, Business Analyst, but this is EXACTLY what I really do, and in the same language that I use that causes most of my colleagues look at me in bewilderment. Bizarrely, this is also the best video I have ever seen that summarises the whole software enterprise - but then that must be because you are describing it from the same perspective as me! I am so grateful and excited. I will be following this up!!

    Extremely easy to interpret. Very helpful illustrations. As Industry 4.0 integrates into viably new companies or into the ecosystems of legacy companies across the world, the increasing role of bonafide Solution Architects are prudent to say the least. Now that I think about it, I see the 2020's decade emergence of brilliant teen and university Solution Architects in Rwanda, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, Senegal, Morocco, Tanzania, Namibia, Kazakhstan, Singapore, Boston and Jamaica.

  • @mohammadajafri6307

    Good presentation , but a correction is due.. Solutions architects shouldn't normally select patterns at the level suggested - MVC / Factory / Controller level. This should be done by either "software architects" - a role that's pretty defunct across most sectors - or more commonly by the Technical Lead / Lead Engineer types

    SE: Integrate and/or deploy the thing. Sr. SE: Improve the thing. Lead SE: Advise on how the thing works for a category of clients or type of business. SA: Try to prevent all the problems you encountered as SE, for a product. Sr. SA: Sit in a lot of meetings. Gain so much institutional knowledge, your scowl can validate a heated QoS review. Lead SA: You can recite legacy code, the person who asked for it, and the one who made it work with eerie detail. ALL: Make sense of the Jerry Springer Thanksgiving table that is Product, Sales, and Engineering - all while begging for more money for your cloud compute du jour. Oh. And cry. Sometimes drink. Usually both in a loop.

    One huge problem; none is in charge of 360 perspective in this model. I am trained and I also agree that the solution architect owns the solution, drives innovation and work together with the project manager/product owner to drive the product/project forward. Solution architect, or if you are lucky an EA, sets the structure (areas etc.) for the requirements, what is important to capture, spend time on and detail and inherit or create rules, principles, guidelines and guide/direct the business analysts.

    sounds over compicated we use 3 roles (BA and SD offten are done by the same person) 1. Business Analyst - responsible for getting solid “as-is” business knowledge of the client and business requirements for the to-be solution. 2. Solution Designer - responsible for “to-be” solution design, i.e. how business requirements will be implemented in the solution. SD does the following: • Describes to-be solution as a Functional Specifications. This is not very technical document understandable by Client, Developers, QAs. The document contains screen prototypes and describes how the functionality will be implemented including assumptions and limitations. • Answers to questions, raised by team members, on how the solution has to handle different corner cases and defines functional limitations 3. Tech Lead - responsible for: • Technical Architecture • Dev Team technical management including o Task decomposition and allocation to developers o Code review o Helping developers with resolving complex issues/tasks o Timeframes and efforts estimation • Troubleshooting (poor performance, memory leaks, etc)

    The "Waterfall" approach to building software is mostly a myth. I've struggled to find any example of a software project that did not use some form of iteration at least of the coding and testing cycle, even back in the 1970s and 1980s. The idea that no testing would be done until the very end is the most egregious part of this myth (with the exception in some cases of integration testing). Most successful software projects from the past used some form of iteration and progress verification with their customers. This methodology was not suddenly invented, instead grew out of the natural and quite obvious way software needs to be built. It's been codified into named methodologies, but is not something new.
