The New Architect and the Old Designer

July 18th, 2016 · No Comments

by Dwayne Phillips

I am again disappointed in job titles, but at least I learn some new lingo.

Architecture = Design (noun)

Architect (noun, person) = Designer (noun, person)

Solutions Architect = Solutions Designer (well, that else would you design but a solution?)

Then we have the verb form…

to architect =  to design (verb)

On charitable days, I think this is a bit much. On other days, I find it silly. I guess a systems architect is paid more money than a designer. Oh well, at least I’m learning more things to interpret.
