How do you ensure quality attributes match across your system?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Quality attributes are the non-functional requirements that define how well your system performs, such as availability, reliability, scalability, security, and usability. They are essential for ensuring that your system meets the expectations of your users and stakeholders, and that it can evolve and adapt to changing needs and environments. However, quality attributes are not always easy to specify, measure, and verify across your system, especially when it involves multiple components, layers, and technologies. How do you ensure quality attributes match across your system? Here are some tips and best practices to help you achieve this goal.

1 Define quality attributes early

One of the first steps to ensure quality attributes match across your system is to define them clearly and explicitly in the early stages of your system design. You can use techniques such as quality attribute scenarios, which describe how your system should behave in a specific situation, or quality attribute models, which capture the relationships and trade-offs among different quality attributes. By defining quality attributes early, you can align them with your system goals, scope, and constraints, and communicate them to your team and stakeholders.

Various Quality Attributes in My Fastners Company Domain are 1) Raw Material 2) Mechanical Properties 3) Chemical Properties 4) Dimensional Properties 5) Cost Effectiveness. 6) Surface Finish All Of This Above Requirements Together Contribute To Customer Satisfaction . Its also Rely On different factors such As Customer Special Requirements and Preparing SOP For Achieving Desired Quality Is Most Important.

I definitely agree with this first step: assessment + analysis + design are the first most important tasks to take into account and to share with all the people involved. The final result is to get everyone on the same page.

To ensure quality attributes match across your system is the need to monitor and manage quality attributes in real time. This is important because quality attributes can change over time as your system evolves and changes in its environment. For example, a system that was initially deployed to a small number of users may need to be scaled to support a larger number of users, which can impact performance and reliability.

2 Use architectural patterns and tactics

Another way to ensure quality attributes match across your system is to use architectural patterns and tactics that support them. Architectural patterns are reusable solutions to common problems in system design, such as client-server, peer-to-peer, or microservices. Architectural tactics are specific design decisions that affect one or more quality attributes, such as caching, replication, or encryption. By using architectural patterns and tactics, you can leverage proven practices and principles that can help you achieve your desired quality attributes.

Another foundational pillar is standardization and share/reuse of patterns and methods: this way the effort for managing the entire solution lifecycle (starting from the design and up to the maintenance phase) is lowered and it's possible to define standard procedures to scale service management faster.

3 Apply quality attribute analysis

A third way to ensure quality attributes match across your system is to apply quality attribute analysis methods and tools that can help you evaluate and verify them. Quality attribute analysis methods are systematic approaches that can help you identify, measure, and compare the impact of different design alternatives on your quality attributes, such as the Architecture Trade-off Analysis Method (ATAM) or the Quality Attribute Workshop (QAW). Quality attribute analysis tools are software tools that can help you simulate, test, and monitor your quality attributes, such as performance testing tools, security scanning tools, or reliability analysis tools.

To analyze the performance of a proposed system architecture, you could create a model of the system and simulate its behavior under different workloads. To analyze the scalability of a proposed system architecture, you could create a prototype of the system and test it under increasing workloads. To analyze the security of a proposed system architecture, you could review the design for potential vulnerabilities and use a variety of tools and techniques to test the system for security weaknesses. Quality attribute analysis can be used at any stage from early requirements gathering to post-deployment monitoring. It is a valuable tool for ensuring that your system meets its quality attribute requirements.

4 Document and communicate quality attributes

A fourth way to ensure quality attributes match across your system is to document and communicate them effectively throughout your system development and maintenance. You can use various forms of documentation and communication to capture and share your quality attributes, such as architectural views, quality attribute matrices, or quality attribute reports. By documenting and communicating quality attributes, you can ensure that they are consistent, transparent, and traceable across your system, and that they are understood and respected by your team and stakeholders.

Documenting and sharing is of paramount importance, because teams and stakeholders are on the same page: less reworks or duplicate tasks, more efficient management, knowledge sharing is the key for people upskilling

5 Review and improve quality attributes

A fifth way to ensure quality attributes match across your system is to review and improve them regularly and continuously. You can use various methods and techniques to review and improve your quality attributes, such as quality attribute reviews, quality attribute audits, or quality attribute feedback loops. By reviewing and improving quality attributes, you can ensure that they are aligned with your system requirements, expectations, and changes, and that they are optimized and enhanced over time.

Quality is not forever: a review process during the entire lifecycle of the architecture is a needed task to schedule or to engage in case of changes to the architecture.

6 Learn from quality attribute examples

A sixth way to ensure quality attributes match across your system is to learn from quality attribute examples and case studies that can inspire and inform your system design. You can use various sources and resources to learn from quality attribute examples, such as books, articles, blogs, podcasts, or courses. By learning from quality attribute examples, you can discover new ideas, insights, and lessons that can help you improve your system quality attributes.

This is a quite easy task, because there is a lot of documentation about examples or use case scenarios of architectures coming from vendors, bloggers, authors, etc: the difficult part is to assimilate these use cases and to apply them into our specific daily tasks, sometimes changing our habits... Moreover, Tech Companies have to understand that a continuous process of mentoring is needed: this way you can assure knowledge transfer from older expert senior workers to the younger / less expert ones. Quality is all about experience and seniors have a lot of it. The difficult part is sharing (seniors are afraid of losing their role) and listening (juniors are frequently very creative and they prefer doing things their own way).
