TSDD is Your Project's Best Investment
Learn how to structure your Technical Solution Design Document
A well-crafted Tech Solution Design Document (TSDD) can save your project time, money, and headaches. It serves as a blueprint for developers and engineers, providing them with a clear understanding of the system's architecture, components, and functionalities. The key sections of TSDD below.
The High Level Architecture presents a visual representation of the system's components and their interactions. It breaks down the system into smaller, manageable components.
The Data Flow Diagram (DFD) illustrates the flow of data through the system.
Interface Design: A well-designed UI interface is intuitive, efficient, and visually appealing, making it easy for users to accomplish tasks. API interface lets systems talk to each other seamlessly.
Components Design: Frontend Components handle the user interface and interaction. Middleware Components bridge the frontend and backend, handling tasks like data validation, authentication, authorization, workflow, business logic and API calls. Data Models define the structure and relationships between data elements.
QA design focuses on testing strategies and how quality will be measured and assured throughout development. Build & Deployment design focuses on compiling and deploying the source code to production servers.
Governance Design helps plan ongoing maintenance, updates, and support. It also helps with risk identification, assessment and mitigation.
