Description
Software Architecture is the process of taking operational and technical requirements and designing a solution that optimizes things deemed important to the system like quality, performance, security, and maintainability. If you're a Python developer aspiring to become the architects of enterprise-grade applications or software architects who would like to leverage Python to create effective blueprints of applications, then go for this Learning Path.

Packt’s Video Learning Path is a series of individual video products put together in a logical and stepwise manner such that each video builds on the skills learned in the video before it.

The highlights of this Learning Path are:

● Understand the characteristics and importance of software architecture

● Solve security issues with web applications

● Explore different design patterns in Python

Let's take a quick look at your learning journey. This Learning Path starts off by explaining how Python fits into an application architecture. You’ll get a complete understanding of the different architectural quality requirements such as maintainability, reusability, testability, scalability, performance, usability, and security to build a product that satisfies business needs. Next, you’ll learn what is scalability and concurrency and the relationship between the two that affects the performance attributes. Further, you’ll learn security aspects of Python. Finally, you’ll learn the creational, structural, and behavioral patterns in Python.

By the end of this Learning Path, you’ll have all the knowledge to become a successful software architect.
