# Angular for Architects: Data Patterns (Day 0)

How do you follow the best practices and set yourself up to successfully maintain your application? Are you meeting your business requirements and considering resiliency patterns? How do you log critical app activity, manage shared state, and design your components?

Once you graduate from Angular fundamentals it's time to shift your focus to architectural concepts, best practices, and how to solve challenging tasks. That’s the purpose of the Angular for Architects workshop series. Each day of this workshop series can be taken separately, while each focuses on patterns essential to your app's success. Day 0 focuses on data patterns, Day 1 focuses on component patterns, and Day 2 focuses on Full stack patterns.
