Documentation as ballast? Effective documenting of the architecture helps you in the design of the software, manages the implementation and results in an understandable and assessable solution. Appropriate documentation supports interaction within the team and vis-à-vis third parties. In this interactive workshop you will learn how the documentation of the architecture changes from a burdensome duty to an integral communication and work tool. Learn to concisely document architecture-relevant influencing factors and important decisions.

Architekturdokumentation, Methodische Softwarearchitektur und Cloud-Anwendungen
Von der Bayer AG über IBM und oose zu embarc. Stefan Zörner blickt auf 20 Jahre IT-Erfahrung zurück und stets gespannt nach vorn. Er unterstützt in Architektur- und Umsetzungsfragen mit dem Ziel, gute Architekturansätze wirksam in der Implementierung zu verankern. In lebendigen Workshops vermittelt er Handwerkszeug dazu und steckt mit seiner Begeisterung an. Sein pragmatischer Ansatz Architektur festzuhalten findet großen Anklang.
-- Our Customers Say
»The trainer takes the fear out of documentation. With his experience, he classifies when which method can be used and how sensibly and thus lowers the hurdles for good documentation. Highly recommended for architects, developers and project managers!«
