Lo que cada nivel debe demostrar

Mid-level

Is accountable for a complete solution design that covers integration, security and capacity, not just its interfaces.

You design solutions made of several services, decide how they talk to each other, and size them for expected growth. The change from junior is that security and capacity questions are yours to answer, and the design goes to the team without a line-by-line review.

Ruta de estudio de este nivel: Solutions Architect

  • Functional Requirements

    Por qué: Lets you reconcile conflicting requirements from different stakeholders and trace each one to a component, so scope disputes are settled on paper.

  • Non-Functional Requirements

    Por qué: Lets you resolve trade-offs between targets, such as accepting higher latency to meet a security constraint, and get the sponsor to agree.

  • API Design Patterns

    Por qué: Lets you place an API gateway and define a deprecation path for a public API used by partners, so a change does not force them to rewrite overnight.

  • Event-Driven Integration

    Por qué: Lets you decide when an order flow should use events and queues instead of direct calls, and handle duplicates and ordering when the broker redelivers.

  • Zero Trust Architecture

    Por qué: Lets you design service-to-service access that verifies every call, so a compromised internal host cannot reach the rest of the network freely.

  • IAM Design

    Por qué: Lets you define roles and policies for a new system and block privilege escalation paths, before an over-broad permission becomes an audit finding.

  • Capacity Planning

    Por qué: Lets you estimate instances and database size for a launch from expected traffic, so the system does not fall over on the first campaign day.

  • Caching Strategies

    Por qué: Lets you pick cache layers and an invalidation rule for a read-heavy page, accepting a known staleness window instead of showing wrong prices.
