These are also known as quality attributes. While the exact list of non-functional requirements depends on the complexity of each individual product, the most common of them are security, performance, maintainability, scalability, usability, and reliability of a product. The solution architects role is to analyze all non-functional requirements and ensure that further product engineering will meet them.
