Write applications in C#/.NET that will stand the test of time, evolving with the information systems they belong to and the services they interoperate with by using standards and solid business-related architecture rulesKey FeaturesLearn the principles of business-aligned software architectureRelate theory to several well-known architecture frameworksApply the knowledge you gain to create a .NET application with a standard-based APIPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook DescriptionThe software development domain continues to grow exponentially, and information systems have become the backbone of most industries, including non-digital-native ones. However, technical debt, coupling, and a high level of maintenance - sometimes leading to a complete halt of IT systems - continue to present a problem. The software industry has to still apply standard-based, modular, and repeatable approaches that exist in other industries.This book demonstrates such methods in action, particularly business/IT alignment principles. As you progress, you'll cover advanced concepts and theories currently researched in academia. Next, you'll be guided toward a practical framework to transfer these approaches to actual software architecture. Finally, a dedicated section will help you apply the knowledge you gain to a sample application in .NET where API design, dependency management, and code writing will be explained in detail to relate to the business-alignment principles explained at the beginning. Throughout the book, you'll get equipped with the skills to create modular, long-living applications that serve your users better.By the end of this .NET book, you'll have learned new concepts but also gained the ability to apply them right away to your upcoming software endeavors.What you will learnComprehend the main problems in real-world software developmentUnderstand what business alignment meansCreate a four-layer map of an information systemBecome proficient in SOLID, C4, and domain-driven design (DDD) architectureGet up to speed with semantics, API, and standards for better interoperabilityInclude BPM, MDM, low code, and BRMS in information systemsDesign an application with strict responsibility separationWho this book is forThis book is for software architects who want to have an in-depth understanding of how their applications will be used and how they can fight technical debt as well as design software to keep it working even when business requirements evolve. If your previous software designs experienced progressive loss of performance and the capacity to evolve, this book is for you.
