Preparing the Preliminary Architecture
We now know a lot more about Remulak Productions' requirements, as well as some of its technology needs and desires. The last artifact we need to begin, but not finish, before completing the Inception phase is the framework of the preliminary architecture. The project vision template contains some high-level architecture placeholders, but the primary resting place of the project architecture is the Software Architecture Document (SAD) of the Unified Process. Officially, the SAD isn't produced until the Elaboration phase, but I choose to begin fleshing it out with elements that we already know about when we're in the Inception phase. Table 4-5 lists the technology components of the architecture.
