Think like a software architect

Foundations gives you code discipline. You will learn how to structure business logic so it stays independent from databases, message brokers, and UI code. You will see architectural patterns like Hexagonal and Clean Architecture implemented in real code. You will understand how to enforce clear team boundaries and write clean code like an architect.

You will learn how to combine system design patterns to design systems that hold under reliability, cost, security and performance constraints. You will see real systems analyzed end-to-end, from use case analysis and component decomposition to modernization and scalability. You will understand how to defend architectural decisions under real constraints.
