System architecture is the structural design of software that automates work. What are Systems?Systems are a class of software that offers automations and foundational functions as opposed to acting as a tool for people to use. They may have no user interface whatsoever. Alternatively, they may offer a user interface for purposes such as administration, operation and management.
The term "systems" is also commonly used to describe anything that is complex and ordered such as a society or organization. System architecture is the structure of an IT system. The architecture of complex systems such as an organization is most typically referred to as business architecture or enterprise architecture.

The following is a basic example of a service architecture.Component ArchitectureComponents are reusable parts that are used to construct services.
