Key benefits

  • Design scalable large-scale applications with the C++ programming language
  • Architect software solutions in a cloud-based environment with continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD)
  • Achieve architectural goals by leveraging design patterns, language features, and useful tools

Description

Software architecture refers to the high-level design of complex applications. It is evolving just like the languages we use, but there are architectural concepts and patterns that you can learn to write high-performance apps in a high-level language without sacrificing readability and maintainability. If you're working with modern C++, this practical guide will help you put your knowledge to work and design distributed, large-scale apps. You'll start by getting up to speed with architectural concepts, including established patterns and rising trends, then move on to understanding what software architecture actually is and start exploring its components. Next, you'll discover the design concepts involved in application architecture and the patterns in software development, before going on to learn how to build, package, integrate, and deploy your components. In the concluding chapters, you'll explore different architectural qualities, such as maintainability, reusability, testability, performance, scalability, and security. Finally, you will get an overview of distributed systems, such as service-oriented architecture, microservices, and cloud-native, and understand how to apply them in application development. By the end of this book, you'll be able to build distributed services using modern C++ and associated tools to deliver solutions as per your clients' requirements.

Who is this book for?

This software architecture C++ programming book is for experienced C++ developers looking to become software architects or develop enterprise-grade applications.

What you will learn

  • Understand how to apply the principles of software architecture
  • Apply design patterns and best practices to meet your architectural goals

This book is full of useful modern practices when it comes to distributed systems development, continuous integration/deployment, testing, and some of the modern language features that come with C++20. The organization I work within doesn't use a lot of the STL, which is where quite a bit of C++20 gets its power, and my background and experience hover around the C++11 era. However the other parts about cloud-native design, CI/CD, microservices, etc. are very useful to anybody who is building a large system in C++ and wants to take advantage of some of the paradigms not typically associated with C++ development.

Software Architecture with C++This book covers the concepts and components of a software architecture using C++ as the language of design. It covers the topics a software architect needs to consider when designing a complete software solution – at a high level. It does not go into these topics in great depth, but it does give the kernel concepts in enough detail. No single book would be able to cover all this material in great detail. The usefulness of the book is as a consolidated guide of topics and where to go for more information.The book provides references for where to go to find out more detail on the various topics: books, websites, code repositories, etc.In addition to the resource information, there are some interesting snippets of C++ code illustrating design principles. I would have liked it if there were more coding examples, but overall, Software Architecture with C++ is a valuable addition to the architect’s library. It will serve as a good place to look first to find a design/principal, and then provide further resources to explore and research the ideas in depth.

This provides thorough overview of and practical guidance for all aspects of building a modern distributed system for the intermediate to advanced C++ programmer.Building a modern distributed system is not just about designing the system; it is also about ensuring a accurate, reliable, and complete implementation of that system.This book focuses on all aspects of the design and implementation considerations to build a successful distributed system. It begins with a presentation of a variety of design approaches, such as stateful and stateless services, monolithic services versus microservices, layered architectures and module-bases architectures. Guidance on gathering and documenting requirements is covered. Many aspects of implementing the system in C++ are illuminated. Most significantly, the oft-overlooked concepts of testability, performance, scalability, and security. I was particularly pleased to see a practical discussion of code review during system development.The last chapters of the book takes a deeper dive on various architectures such as microservices, containers, web services, and cloud-native services. For each architecture, it provides useful tools and practical approaches for implementation and deployment.For any programmer who is individually or on a team responsible for developing, deploying,and/or maintaining a distributed system, this book is an indispensable guide to success.

Software Architecture is language agnostic. That is true when you want to teach or discuss high level concepts, or when you design a high level architecture; but when you face a real project, you need, in some way, to 'instantiate' those concepts, in order to do so you need real tools; going in that direction, it is great to have at hand a book that put together high level concepts with concrete and real tools that you can actually use to build your solution. This book starts with the fundamental ideas and concepts of software architecture, and then it puts it down to earth with real examples and tools, this is extremely helpful in particular for those that are facing project's challenges and don't have experienced engineers on their team. It is worth mentioning that the book is quite up to date covering topics like cloud, containers, microservices, c++20 concepts, etc. For sure there could be space for additions for future editions where more examples can be created or new topics can be covered putting in practice some architectural tools and libraries available on the STL or Boost Libraries for instance. Great book overall.
