System Architecture Diagram Flashcards
It refers to the conceptual model that defines the structure, behavior, and more views of a system. It provides a blueprint for both the system to be developed and the project developing it.
System Architecture
It helps developers, designers, and stakeholders understand how the system will work before it’s built.
Provides a Clear Plan
A good architecture allows the system to grow
as more users or features are added.
Ensures Scalability
It ensures the system runs efficiently and
meets performance requirements.
Improves Performance
Proper architecture includes security measures
to protect data and prevent breaches.
Enhances Security
A well-planned architecture avoids costly redesigns
and fixes later.
Reduces Costs
Key Components of System Architecture
Hardware, Software, Networks, Data, and Interfaces
The physical devices like servers, computers, and storage devices.
Hardware
The programs and operating systems that run on the hardware.
Software
The communication systems that connect hardware and software components.
Networks
How data is stored, processed, and accessed (e.g., databases, cloud storage).
Data
How users and other systems interact with the system (e.g., APIs, user interfaces).
Interfaces
