Description:

Software architecture metrics are used to measure the maintainability, architectural quality of a software project and to warn early in the process about dangerous accumulations of architectural and technical debt. In this book leading hands-on software architects introduce some key software architecture metrics through case studies, that every software architect should know. This book is not about theory, it is more about practice and implementation, about what has been already tried and worked. Early detection of software architectural issues is key. It helps mitigate the risk of poor performance, and lowers the cost of repairing these issues.
