Writing reliable and maintainable C++ software is hard. Designing such software at scale adds a new set of challenges. Creating large-scale systems requires a practical understanding of logical design — beyond the theoretical concepts addressed in most popular texts. To be successful on an enterprise scale, developers must also address physical design, a dimension of software engineering that may be unfamiliar even to expert developers. How do you do this?

Large-Scale C++ Volume I: Process and Architecture

by John Lakos

From the article:

Drawing on over 30 years of hands-on experience building massive, mission-critical enterprise systems, John Lakos lays the foundation for projects of all sizes and demonstrates the processes, methods, techniques, and tools needed for successful real-world, large-scale development.

Up to date and with a solid engineering focus, this book demonstrates fundamental design concepts with concrete examples.

This book, written for fellow software practitioners, uses familiar C++ constructs to solve real-world problems while identifying (and motivating) modern C++ alternatives.
