Overview

Creating applications that meet business needs is key to successful software architecture design. IBM Rational technologies enable you to analyze, design and implement flexible and maintainable software architectures that can be easily modified as requirements change. A common visual understanding of important decisions also keeps business and system analysts, architects, data modelers and developers in sync—whether they’re changing business processes, creating new applications or extracting design information from existing systems. And Jazz’s integration with leading Requirements Definition and Management solutions allows direct access, reuse and traceability to and from requirements, ensuring that software delivery teams meet customer expectations.
