Just like any other types, app architects maintains the quality of an app, and spearheads the whole process of the development in order to manage the technologies used and other technical support needed in the projects. Simply put, someone who plans out an app – like a housing architect who draws out a blueprint for a house to combine practical functions, comfort and artistic designs, an application architect plans out an app blueprint that combines performance, security, manageability and other factors. A software architect not only has to come up with blueprints for applications, he or she also has to effectively work with and lead a team and combine a community of users, coders, QA, and business executives.
Because an application architect has to combine many different elements and requirements into an application, there are some key considerations that the architect needs to solve before beginning on the actual project.
From Microsoft’s Developer Network:
Considering the perspective of the target users are of importance to the architect. Having to marry the right technology to support the design and experience while managing errors is the priority of app architects, to effectively launch and maintain these digital products.
With that, not only technical skills are sought-after from app architects. They also need to possess personal skills in order to manage the team.
Application architecture is a complex field that combines tech skills, user experience skills, and leadership skills. Rather than coding and creating, an application architect’s job is more like leading and planning. Of course, it varies by projects, teams and companies, but regardless, application architecture is a field crucial to app-building.
