Fundamentals of Software Architectures

This course introduces the fundamental concepts of software architecture and system design. You will learn how to structure applications, choose the right architectural patterns, and make good technical decisions for building scalable, secure, and maintainable software systems.

We will cover key topics such as architectural styles (monolith, layered, microservices), design principles, system components, documentation, and real-world architecture decision-making. By the end of this course, you will be able to analyze, design, and explain the architecture of modern software applications.

This course is ideal for students, junior developers, and developers who want to move toward system design and software architecture.
