What are the key differences between an Application Architect and a Solution Architect in the context of IT architecture roles and responsibilities? How does the level of abstraction differ for an Application Architect and a Solution Architect when designing and implementing IT solutions? Do they have distinct areas of focus, such as system-level design versus component-level design?

Application Architects are responsible for the design and development of software applications. They work with software developers, business analysts and project managers to plan, create and implement application solutions that meet business needs. Application Architects typically have a strong understanding of multiple programming languages and software development platforms.

Solution architects typically have a deep understanding of multiple technical disciplines, including networking, security, storage, and servers. They use this knowledge to design comprehensive solutions that are robust and scalable. Solution architects also work with vendors to select the right products and services to meet the needs of the project. They may also be involved in the implementation of the solution and provide support during the warranty period.
