      If your very new, then start with Patterns, I prefer to start with Head First Design Patterns and go with GOF( Gang of Four) Patterns by Erich Gama And you know the Road to go ahead. Regards, Vythees

        You need to understand your client's needs, technology to archieve their needs, and design a solution of their needs.

          I disagree. Architects are responsible of programming in the large, whereas DESIGN patterns are standard solutions to solve problems in programming in the small (as the design in the name already says). And a side note: Yes, yes I know there is no clear boundary between architecture and design, no need to write that to me ;-)

            This might help http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/architecture/default.aspx[^]. Wiki[^] might also help here.
