Architectural Driver: Maintenance Costs
How much this architectural style costs.
|
||||||||
Scalability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Scalability
The ability of a system to effectively cope with increases in load over the long term, both in terms of the number of users and the amount of data or requests being processed.
|
||||||||
Performance
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Performance
It determines how quickly and efficiently the system processes tasks. It affects the response time and the number of operations the system can handle.
|
||||||||
Modularity
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Modularity
It means dividing the system into smaller, independent modules, which makes it easier to develop, test and maintain.
|
||||||||
Flexibility
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Flexibility
The ability of a system to easily introduce changes and adapt to new requirements. It allows for development and modification without the need for major reconstruction.
|
||||||||
Reliability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Reliability
It refers to the ability of a system to work continuously and correctly for a long time without failure. High reliability guarantees the stability and continuity of services.

|
||||||||
Maintainability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Maintainability
It means the ease with which a system can be diagnosed, modified and repaired. High maintainability translates into lower maintenance costs and faster response to problems.
|
||||||||
Testability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Testability
Refers to the ease with which a system can be subjected to testing to verify correctness and quality. Facilitates the detection of errors in the early stages of development.
|
||||||||
Extensibility
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Extensibility
It allows you to easily add new features without disrupting your existing structure. It helps you respond quickly to changing business needs.
|
||||||||
Interoperability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Interoperability
The ability of a system to cooperate and communicate with other systems and technologies. It facilitates the integration of various modules and services.
|
||||||||
Support for Distribution
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Support for Distribution
The ability of a system to operate effectively in distributed environments, enabling efficient communication and collaboration between distributed components.
|
||||||||
Deployability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Deployability
Determines how easily and quickly a system or its updates can be deployed to a production environment. Enables frequent and secure updates.
|
||||||||
Transaction Support
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Transaction Support
Ensures that system operations are performed consistently and atomically according to ACID principles. Guarantees data integrity during complex operations.
|
||||||||
Data Consistency
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Data Consistency
Guarantee that data remains consistent and correct throughout the system, even with simultaneous operations and possible failures.
|
||||||||
Simplicity of Architecture
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Simplicity of Architecture
The structure of the system is transparent and understandable, which facilitates implementation, development and team collaboration.
|
||||||||
Observability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Observability
The ability of a system to generate data that allows for status analysis and problem identification. Facilitates rapid response to incidents and effective system management.
|
||||||||
Elasticity
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Elasticity
The ability to dynamically scale resources (e.g., add or remove computing power) in response to short-term fluctuating load.
|
||||||||
Responsiveness
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Responsiveness
The ability of a system to respond quickly to user requests and minimize delays, which affects the smoothness of interaction and comfort of use.
|
||||||||
Fault tolerance
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Fault tolerance
The ability of a system to continue to operate despite errors often uses fault isolation mechanisms.
|
||||||||
Fault Isolation
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Fault Isolation
The ability to limit the impact of failures to a specific part of the system so that they do not spread to the rest of the system.
|
||||||||
Evolvability
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Evolvability
The ability of the system to adapt and develop in response to changing business and technological requirements. It allows for the introduction of new functions without the need for a major reconstruction of the entire architecture.
|
||||||||
Concurrency
|
||||||||
Architectural Driver: Concurrency
The ability to perform multiple operations simultaneously, allowing for better utilization of system resources. Concurrency allows the system to handle multiple tasks in parallel, increasing efficiency and responsiveness.
