Description

The architect makes high-level design choices much more often than low-level choices. In addition, the architect may sometimes dictate technical standards, including coding standards, tools, or platforms, so as to advance business goals rather than to place arbitrary restrictions on the choices of developers[citation needed] . Note that software architects rarely deal with the physical architecture of the hardware environment, confining themselves to the design methodology of the code.
