What does an .NET Architect do?

In a general sense, an architect tries to understand and design a solution with a high level view - offering the "big picture" - of the project. For this task has in mind the most important requirements of a project that may affect the maintainability, flexibility and scalability of the solution but without considering the underlying technology that can be implemented. From a more concrete perspective, linked to a specific platform such as. NET, involves gradually learn it best practices and benefits of working within it.

Why is this function so important?

Is important because it gives a holistic and integrated view of a software solution detached from the details of the implementation. Pondering how to implement not only functional attributes but also non-functional attributes to the project and what to do to achieve them. In one sentence you can say it provides a more synthetic view.

What are the advantages Microsoft's . NET technology ?

The main advantages of the .NET technology is, on  one hand, extremely useful and rapid application development tools and, on the other hand, the possibility of taking advantages of best practices and innovative ideas used in the software industry, since. NET was designed to bring flexibility, connectivity services and on a wide range of languages ​​on which to develop.

What advice or tips would you give to a client for your project?

A tip for client would be something like this: "Given a need within your business is important to us that we have clear two things: What do you want exactly? What do you needs it for?". Then, with mutual feedback on these two things, we could move forward together to get the best solution.

A project that you are particularly proud of?

It is difficult to choose one in particular. Teamwork is important to us and the contribution of each member is vital for its expertise and creativity. So then I could not choose one in particular because in all the projects we are all providing the best.
