 iSAQB CPSA Advanced Software Architecture for AI (SWARC4AI)

Course Description

The iSAQB SWARC4AI module teaches modern software architecture concepts specifically tailored for AI systems. The goal is to develop high-performance, scalable, and seamlessly integrable AI solutions. Participants gain in-depth knowledge of the core principles of software architecture for AI and learn to apply them effectively in the design and implementation of machine learning and generative AI systems.

Using practice-oriented modeling techniques and proven architectural tools, they acquire the skills to seamlessly integrate AI components into existing software systems. The module covers both machine learning and generative AI applications and demonstrates how these can be optimally combined with traditional software systems. Participants will learn how to design architectures for hybrid systems to meet the highest standards of scalability, maintainability, and extensibility.

 

Target Audience


This training is designed for professionals who want to successfully integrate AI solutions into existing IT infrastructures. Particular emphasis is placed on scalability, security, and maintainability.
