    <p>I think the role of architecture is changing. I see less and less ivory tower architects that design a whole system for the lowly programmers to implement in a waterfall process.</p> <p>When doing iterative projects communication between architects and programmers gets more important. The architect is part of a team and should be able to handle changing requirements and new ideas together with the programmers. In situations like this the job of an architect and a programmer are more closely related. I've seen teams where the dev-leads took on the role of architects deliver well thought out architectures for really complicated solutions.</p> <p><strong>edit</strong> In reply to comment<br> I think in the distinction between application, solution and enterprise architect is a bit artificial and doesn't really fit in many cases. Roles like security architect, data architect etc. give a far clearer disinction between responsibilities. You can look here for more details <a href="http://stevendwright.home.comcast.net/~stevendwright/ArchRoles.htm" rel="noreferrer">http://stevendwright.home.comcast.net/~stevendwright/ArchRoles.htm</a></p> <p>By the way, from reading your question again I noticed that many of the arguments against coding architects seem to indicate a strong management/leadership role for the architect. I think it's a good idea to separate the management and architecture roles. It's better to have your technical people divide their time between coding and architecture than between management and architecture.</p>

    1. COIs it worth making the distintions between application, solution and enterprise architect in this context?

    2. CO@Richard Dorman, maybe it's not worth making the distinction for this question, but it definitely makes sense to distinguish for the broader question of 'What can I do to be a more effective architect?'

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
