Architecting the Solution
Often Lionbridge steps in at the critical engineering and design phase—when functional and non-functional requirements are crystallized into architectural specifications, processes and tools.
But the word "crystallize" hides a conundrum: We know that great software depends on solid architecture…while great architecture depends on fluidity.
If you’re building with bricks and mortar, you want a structure which will stand the test of time. If you’re building with lines of code, you want a structure which evolves with time—you want code that’s extensible, adaptable, portable, and scalable. After all, on the web, your application may evolve every single day.
At Lionbridge, we take a high-level concept and help you make the crucial choices among software models, from client/server to SaaS, because we’ve explored these options thoroughly with commercial developers around the globe. In crystallizing concepts into architecture, our teams:
- Finalize business and operational models
- Document the development/delivery roadmap
- Determine the underlying technology
- Fully detail the architecture based on defined requirements
- Establish design standards from data to visual
- Incorporate maintainability and service capabilities
- Document quality expectations
In this effort, we help you balance both traditional and iterative planning modes—so the final product remains as timely and relevant as your first inspiration.
Let us help you architect a building that moves.
