Solution Architect

Solution architecture belongs to a list of most important practices executed before any technical solution development begins.

Solution architecture (SA) is the practice of designing, describing, and managing the solution engineering in relation to specific business problems. A solution architect is the person responsible for leading the practice and introducing the overall technical vision for a particular solution.

Solution architecture (SA) is a complex process, with many sub-processes, bridging the gap between business problems and technology solutions. Some of the processes include:

  • Finding the best technical solution among all those possible to solve the existing business problems.
  • Describing the structure, characteristics, behavior, and other aspects of software to project stakeholders.
  • Defining features, phases, and solution requirements.
  • Provide relevant specifications and assure the solution is defined, managed, and delivered as designed.
