Achilleas Anagnostopoulos

Achilleas Anagnostopoulos has been writing code in a multitude of programming languages since the mid 90s. His main interest lies in building scalable, microservice-based distributed systems where components are interconnected via gRPC or message queues. Achilleas has over 4 years of experience building production-grade systems using Go and occasionally enjoys pushing the language to its limits through his experimental gopher-os project: a 64-bit kernel written entirely in Go. He is currently a member of the Juju team at Canonical, contributing to one of the largest open source Go code bases in existence.

Requirements analysis

To perform a detailed requirements analysis for the Links 'R' Us project, we need to essentially come up with answers for two key questions: what do we need to build and how well would our proposed design fare against a set of goals?

To answer the what question, we need to list all of the core functionalities that our system is expected to implement as well as describe how the various actors will interact with it. This forms the Functional Requirements (FRs) for our analysis.

To answer the latter question, we have to state the Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) for our solution. Typically, the list of non-functional requirements includes items such as Service-Level Objectives (SLOs) and capacity and scalability requirements, as well as security-related considerations for our project.
