Architecture Design and Requirements Gathering Questions

Structured approach to eliciting, documenting, and validating business and technical requirements before designing architectures. Cover techniques for identifying functional requirements and non functional requirements such as performance, scalability, availability, security, and maintainability; stakeholder mapping and interviews; constraints including budget, compliance, and team skills; and prioritization frameworks. Describe artifacts such as system context diagrams, sequence or flow diagrams, acceptance criteria, key performance indicators, and a decision matrix to translate requirements into architecture choices and measurable acceptance criteria.
