Excerpt from Baidu Encyclopedia: The so-called architect, designer or popular to say that the structure of the designers, these definitions if used in architecture, it is easy to understand. In the field of software engineering, software architect is actually a general designer of software projects, new product development and integration of software organizations, new technology system builders.
As "Talking about architecture," the author said, the architect must be an organization leader. The main task of writing software architect is not engaged in specific programs, but in a higher level of infrastructure development work, so software architects need to have good organization and management capacity as well as some real power.
To become a qualified software architect, we must first understand the architect is to help others solve problems, rather than trying to complete the work, and the work is completed or not is what others say, not their own, so as to be an architect the completion of the work of others as their own best interests, we must strive to rely on you more and more people agree with you.

Architect is to organize members to actively serve in constant balance and adjust people's interest in the course. The so-called architect, not only better technology, but also have good management skills.
