Application Architecture Essentials, Part 1: Everything You Need to Know About Requirements Modeling

Overview The success of one's software project depends on accurate and complete requirements. Getting this part of the architecture correct requires that both people and technical skills capture and refine the right requirements. Discover the useful skills and tools for modeling requirements, and learn how to evaluate progress in competency. Determining requirements can be difficult. Often the operation of existing applications has taken over the business process requirements to become the equivalent of design or implementation changes. For example, the request "One need to add a column to table XYZ to store the customer code" does not explain why this column is necessary, the business process(es) it supports, or any business rules around the validity, cross-database integrity, and so on.
