Objective 6.2 · Domain 6 · 14% of the exam

Communicate architectural decisions and trade-offs

The audience named in the stem is the whole question here. Communicating an architectural decision means naming the trade-off, the alternatives considered and the reason this one won, in terms of the listener's stake rather than the system's internals. The same decision is explained differently to a CFO, a security reviewer and the engineer who will maintain it.
