If the role of a good cloud architect is to design and build cost-effective software, is there a formula to achieve that goal every time?
A successful enterprise software application must effectively reflect the appropriate business context. But how do you ensure this is the case at the architecture phase?
I find it helpful to start by creating an oversimplified business model at the design stage. For example, using this model, a business owner invests capital to establish a factory that transforms raw materials into finished products sold at a reasonable price. Additionally, the business has ongoing operational costs, such as rent and utilities.
