Nice overview of SA. Specially the roles and soft skills, every company seems to get them wrong. I think you need to add concepts of elasticity big data, machine learning, kubernetes and graph API.

Its not for beginners. But its a very good course in General. Could be a little more dynamic.

By Daniel agape markus Kolsi on 11/8/2020

It has good insights but seems to be focused more on the horrendous waterfall-model than agile. It seems to have got better, e.g. good stuff about design patterns.

So far so good

By Ben MUYLDERMANS on 10/25/2020

Well structured and quite clear

By Sonia Chikhaoui on 10/23/2020

specially the deployment part, now with CI/CD it has to be reviewed that is for almost every projet has to be automatic to keep up with the modern companies's way of evolving.

By Vishal Gavas on 10/23/2020

By Ertan oban on 10/19/2020

This lecture gives me vision so that I can imagine how a software company should be, what role I want to be in, and how to make it real. I like the way you teach.

Very good Course.. Covers all aspects end-to-end.

By Francisco Miqueli on 10/19/2020

The course is ok and it was very high level. It would have been nice if it had some quick examples of architect. In addition to the homework it would have been good on seeing the different examples that students could review to see whether they were somewhat on track . The presentation was good but it lack those areas which would had made the course great.

By Deepak Rana on 10/17/2020

It is a good primer for someone who is starting off with the architecture role or aspiring for one. It gives you a good understanding of the basics as well as good pointers for further subject areas you could possibly explore. I liked it!
