Lecture 23Summary and Conclusions
“Advice is a dangerous gift”
There are no right answers
Use the advice to prod your thinking, but don’t use it as a replacement for your thinking
And remember, architecture is not cast in stone
Building Enterprise Applications Building computer systems is hard
– As the complexity of thesystem gets greater, thetask of building thesoftware gets exponentially harder

Building Enterprise Applications Building computer systems is hard
But now when we know how to, it’s not that hard anymore
“A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system
that worked. The inverse proposition also appears to be true: a complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be made to work. You have to start over, beginning with
a simple system.” — John Gall, systems theorist
Goals of an Enterprise Architecture Be robust Be performing and scalable Take advantage of OO design principles Avoid unnecessary complexity Be maintainable and extensible Be easy to test
Enterprise Systems Building large multi-tier systems is done
one line at a time– Layering– Clear interfaces– Minimize dependencies– Separation of concerns– Object Oriented programming– Design patterns– Frameworks– Testable code
Create Abstractions Minimize dependence on subsystems
– Must be easy to change• Gateway, Mapper, Service Stub
Abstract things that varies from what stays the same– Design principles
• Factory, Plugin, Dependency Injections
Separation of ConcernsOne of the main challenge of frameworks is to provide separation of concerns
Frameworks deal with generic functionality
Frameworks need patterns to combine generic and domain specific functionality
Minimize dependencies Be careful with dependencies
– It is easy to create code where modules depend on other modules
• Plugin, Factory, Service Layer, Separated Interface, Dependency Injection and Observer Pattern
Layering Software systems can get complicated
– Abstractions are needed Provides abstraction by separating
computer systems in layers– Higher layers use services from
lower layers– Each layer has dedicated task
and hides complexity from upperlayers
The Three Layers Presentation
– User’s interface to the system– User can be another system– Accepts input, displays views
Domain– The Application of the system– The “Business logic”– Has the tendency to creep into other layers
Data Source– Connection to the database
Three Layers Presentation Layer for the User
Interface Domain Layer for the domain logic Persistence Layer for the data access
Remember the “role” – concern, in each layer
Considerations Don’t overdesign!
– User Interfaces are really difficult to make generic and reusable
– If there is no need for extra layer, don’t have it– If you don’t need an interface, don’t have it
Don’t let frameworks rule you!– If you have to write code just to satisfy a
framework, maybe there is another way – or fix the framework
– Frameworks can overdo it
Considerations Don’t overdo Configurations
– Sometimes coding is better than config– Testing and debugging config is hard
Don’t be afraid to Refactor– You can always add another indirection– You can always add a new layer
Design Principles are good guidelines– Don’t be afraid to reevaluate them
Considerations Embrace new tools and techniques
– These exist to help you– But be careful, don’t jump at everything – there
is a cost Use Tech Rader to evaluate
– Example: ThoughtWorks Radar http://www.thoughtworks.com/radar
Practical Considerations Risk is in feature creep and things out of
control
Practical Considerations Solutions are designed and implemented
according to time schedule and budget– Hardest part is management of people
Practical Considerations Agile is an attempt to answer this
