About this service

Summary

To properly plan out the back end, it’s important to understand the business idea, requirements, and processes behind the software that you plan to develop or equip with a new back end. For that, Science Soft's business consultants and software architects discuss the software type, the existing and planned user count, the integrations, and options for on-premise or cloud hosting. By relying on the gained understanding, they formulate the necessary functional and non-functional requirements, risks, and constraints of the future back end.

The design of the back-end architecture is the backbone of your solution. If the architecture isn’t planned out well, the entire solution fails regardless of the high quality of front-end code or neatness of back-end code. Hence, a lot of consideration needs to be put into choosing and describing the rig architectural use pattern. This process usually includes 5 steps:

1. Analysis – a software architect discusses back-end requirements and constraints with you to single out the must-have and nice-to-have criteria for the final solution.

2. Design and pattern choice – the architect creates a number of back-end architecture options, organizes them according to the criteria, and chooses the one that fits your needs best.

3. Decomposition – the architect breaks the architecture down into smaller components, which helps pinpoint reusable elements for simplified back-end implementation.

4. Approval – the architect presents the high-level back-end design to you, shares their decisions on the technology stack (programming languages, framework, and database type), and discusses the back-end hosting options.

5. Documentation – the architect writes a step-by-step instruction on back-end implementation for the development team with the elements to be developed and integrations to be performed. A PM uses this implementation plan as a base for estimating project efforts, choosing a development methodology, and creating a detailed project schedule.

Following the back-end architecture design, back-end developers build server-side software consisting of scripts, algorithms, and APIs that will be hosted in the cloud or, more rarely now, on an on-premises machine and drive the work of the entire solution. Quality assurance experts work hand-in-hand with the developers, continuously performing manual and automated testing of delivered code.

A database contains all the data used in your solution and communicates it on-demand to the client end via APIs. In some cases, it can also contain additional business logic for data optimization.

Database development can be a separate service, but in back-end projects, back-end developers usually set up the database and APIs as part of the solution. In the case of cloud hosting, cloud database services help data get distributed and replicated across multiple virtual machines so as to enable data access even in case several machines are down.

Once your back-end software and databases are implemented, they can be deployed in the cloud or on on-premises servers and integrated with the client end as well as with other third-party software. If these integrations are thoroughly planned at the first back-end development project stage, no unexpected situations should cause delays in your back-end’s launch.

What's included

Acceptance criteria
Profiles are created and filled out for all four platforms. 1 month of daily content is prepared for each platform. Now taking the goals and the acceptance criteria into account, we can define the project deliverables, which will be handed over to the client upon completion.
The results you’re passing on to the client or stakeholder
As such, they can come in many forms: Reports about completed work Spreadsheets Project plans Design documents & images Presentations Strategy documents & recommendations Such completed work items as articles, emails, business plans, signed contracts, and more What project deliverables are NOT: Milestones – milestones help keep the project on track, but they are typically not deliverables in themselves. Product deliverables – things like software and hardware, and finished physical products are typically referred to as product deliverables and differentiated from project deliverables. Accomplishments outside of the scope of the project – things that are achieved during the project but were not defined as necessary for its successful completion.
