Here in this first post of the blog, I want to also start with the first part of a series. In this post of the series, we will be talking about Layered (or Tiered) Pattern. When you’re building a software project, you need a plan to organize your code. That’s where architectural design patterns come […]
When you’re diving into the world of software design, you’ll often hear about the Model-View-Controller, or MVC for short. It’s one of those blueprints, or design patterns, that helps developers keep their code tidy and well-organized. In this piece, we’ll take a close look at what MVC is and how its parts play together. Model: […]
In this article, we will be talking about Microservices, a design pattern that has gained attraction for its approach to building large and complex software applications. At its core, Microservices is about breaking down an app into smaller parts where each part doing its own job. Instead of one big chunk of software that does […]
Event-Driven Architecture is currently enjoying a lot of attention from businesses around the world due to the enhanced capabilities offered by cloud-based systems. Imagine a digital ecosystem like a busy marketplace. In this environment, various systems act as vendors declaring their services and updates. Rather than each customer (or system) having to visit every vendor […]
I am aware that in our present day world, it is a sin to talk about monolith and not to curse it. However, I am will neither hallelujah nor curse it. I will just try to explain it as an architectural design pattern and try to expose both positive and negative sides of it. The […]
Service-Oriented Architecture, often known simply as SOA, can be thought of as a city of services. In this city, each service is like a shop. Every shop provides a unique product or service but doesn’t worry about the other shops around it. Instead, it focuses on doing its own job really well. So, SOA is […]
Domain-Driven Design, or DDD for short, isn’t about code at first. It’s about understanding the main business inside out, and then designing software that speaks the business’s language. Think about a hospital system. Before we write code, we would talk about patients, doctors, treatments, and appointments. By diving deep into the “domain” or the core […]
Today’s topic is a quite popular one, a fuzzy word getting more and more popular once it used to be a niche architectural pattern only. When we think about building software, a lot of the time and energy is spent thinking about where and how it will run. Serverless architecture, also known as Function as […]
When designing systems, especially distributed systems, the flow of data and service requests must remain continuous. This brings us to an architectural design pattern called the Circuit Breaker. It comes from electronics. Simply, it is designed to stop the flow when something goes wrong. This prevents potential cascading failures in a system. Understanding the Circuit […]
