Key Principles Of Software Architectures
This lesson explains how to minimize complexity in software architecture by grouping structural elements into areas of concern, typically organized as layers in a layered architecture. It then introduces five key principles to follow when creating an architectural design: separation of concerns, the single responsibility principle, the principle of least knowledge, do not repeat yourself, and minimizing upfront design. Together these principles help produce a simple, maintainable architecture that fulfills all requirements without over-engineering.
