Application Architecture Guide 2.0 Final Release

  • 项目

We released our final release of the patterns & practices Application Architecture Guide 2.0 on Codeplex.  It's the "Microsoft playbook for application architecture."  This is our guide to help solution architects and developers make the most of the Microsoft platform.  It's a distillation of many lessons learned.  It’s principle-based and pattern-oriented to provide a durable, evolvable backdrop for application architecture.  It's a collaborative effort among product team members, field, industry experts, MVPs, and customers.

Key Links

Key Changes Since Beta 2

  • Added a foreword by Scott Guthrie.
  • Incorporated feedback from internal and external reviewers.
  • Tuned and pruned the recommendations across the entire guide.

Architecture Meta Frame (AMF)
The Architecture Meta Frame integrates context, application types, architecture styles, and an architecture frame to help map out the application architecture space. 

ArchitectureMetaFrame

The Architecture Meta Frame serves as a durable, evolvable backdrop for the guidance in the patterns & practices Application Architecture Guide 2.0.

Key Scenarios for the Guide

  • Choose the right architecture for your application.
  • Choose the right technologies.
  • Make more effective choices for key engineering decisions.
  • Map appropriate strategies and patterns.
  • Map relevant patterns & practices solution assets.

Key Features of the Guide

  • Canonical Application Frame.  Describes at a meta-level, the tiers and layers that an architect should consider. Each tier/layer is described in terms of its focus, function, capabilities, common design patterns and technologies.
  • Application Types.  Canonical application archetypes to illustrate common application types.  Each archetype is described in terms of the target scenarios, technologies, patterns and infrastructure it contains. Each archetype will be mapped to the canonical app frame. They are illustrative of common app types and not comprehensive or definitive.
  • Architecture Frame.  A common set of categories for hot spots for key engineering decisions.
  • Quality Attributes.  A set of qualities/abilities that shape your application architecture: performance, security, scalability, manageability, deployment, communication, etc.
  • Principles, patterns and practices.  Using the frames as backdrops, the guide overlays relevant principles, patterns, and practices.
  • Technologies and capabilities.  A description and overview of the Microsoft application development platform and the main technologies and capabilities within it.
