Software Architecture Development Advice

Simpler, Scalable and Faster

At FifthVantage, we provide full-cycle software architecture services, including designing & developing, reviewing, tuning, and improving complex software frameworks – creating software that is easier to maintain, extend, and operate. Whether you’re working with new software or an outdated legacy system, we can help you optimize it. Our proven methodology has helped clients achieve over 25% faster time-to-market, superior scalability, and 100% availability with their applications:

1. Capturing Significant Requirements

Understanding the different requirements for your application – functional and non-functional – is essential to guide your software architecture development before the design process. A typical design flow chart will account for functions like ‘profile creation’ and ‘permissions.’ Ease-of-use, on the other hand, is a broader requirement that can be used as a guide to enhance user experience and acceptance. Our seasoned consultants will help you form a solid requirements foundation.

2. Designing a Resilient Architecture

Your software should be able to service not only present business needs but potential ones, as well. It needs to be able to evolve with your business and industry and respond to market changes and technological challenges along the way. Our specialists help you design a framework that truly stands the test of time.

Whether it’s migrating from a monolithic app to microservices, from RPC to REST, or any other value-driven improvement, we’ll help you select new technologies to implement in the architecture that will best support your business and technology goals. We implement Agile methodology in the design process, looping in continuous feedback to create an ‘optimal’ design.

3. Evaluating the Architecture

We help to analyze your existing architecture and identify where your scale and fault tolerance issues exist, and how easy it will be to add new functionality and maintain the architecture. From there, we will make recommendations for changes and new technology that will help you to achieve your goals.

4. Documenting the Architecture

The software architecture development process is useful not just for what it delivers, but what you learn through it as well. Each iteration that fails, the reasons for it, and the feedback compiled is all valuable data. It can inform not just future software development, but also innovation, marketing, and other functions.
