Why is software architecture important? Following are the most important reasons. Explain each of these.
1. An architecture will inhibit or enable a systems’ driving quality attribute.
2. The decisions made in an architecture allow you to reason about and manage change as the system evolves
3. The analysis of an architecture enables early prediction of a system’s qualities
4. A documented architecture enhances communication among stakeholders
5. The architecture is a carriers of the earliest and hence most fundamental, hardest-to-change design decisions
6. An architecture defines a set of constraints on subsequent implementation
7. The architecture indicates the structure of an organization, or vice versa.
8. An architecture can provide the basis for evolutionary prototyping.
9. An architecture is the key artifact that allows the architect and project manager to reason about cost and schedule
10. An architecture can be created as transferable, reusable model that forms the heart of a product line
11. Architecture-based development focuses attention on the assembly of components, rather than simply their creation
12. By restricting design alternatives, architecture channels the creativity of developers, reducing design and system complexity.
13. An architecture can be the foundation for training a new team member.
