In the Global Software Architecture Summit we were discussing software architecture patterns a lot and I decided to write an article about it, highlighting leading software architects insights.   

First of all, what are software architecture patterns?

Architectural patterns are ways of capturing proven good design structures, so that they can be reused. Software architects have been looking for ways to capture and reuse the architectural knowledge that have proven successful in the past. 

More specifically, an architectural pattern is a package of design decisions that is found repeatedly in practice, has well defined properties that can be reused and describes a class of architectures. 

Developing an architecture can be seen as a process of selecting, tailoring, and combining patterns. The software architect must decide how to instantiate a pattern, how to make it fit with the specific context and the constraints of the problem. And later on we will discuss
