This course explores the connection between Software Architecture and Technical Enterprise Architecture, two domains that are closely linked yet not fully understood. For instance, decomposing a complex monolithic application into two separate systems that communicate via web services will necessitate significant adjustments to both the new systems and their inter-architecture.

Participants will examine trade-offs, prevailing patterns, and solutions for managing complex systems and their internal and external communications.

This course is tailored for analysts, designers, developers, testers, and project managers.

The workshop guides participants through problem analysis, system design, and documentation using UML and Sparx Systems' Enterprise Architect. Trainees will explore the software's advanced capabilities, such as MDA, profiles, and XMI, along with best practices that significantly simplify and accelerate the modeling process.
