Understanding the limitations of an architecture is crucial to preventing technical debt. Every architecture, whether monolithic or microservices, has its pros and cons. Overlooking these disadvantages can lead to significant issues. For example, microservices offer many benefits but can become problematic without managing dependencies. It’s important to document both the advantages and disadvantages of an approach at the project’s outset and establish checks to prevent these drawbacks from evolving into technical debt. Continuous review and control of architectural limitations are essential for maintaining a healthy system and avoiding technical debt. #softwareengineering #softwarearchitecture #programming

This excellent content by Dr Milan Milanović outlines strategies for breaking down your monolithic system into smaller, more manageable pieces. I shared my own experience over a year ago in this Medium article: https://lnkd.in/d-QDiRzA

𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 We have three types of monoliths. Traditional ones bundle everything together in some kind of layered form. Modular monoliths have defined functional boundaries and dependencies but still require a single deployment. Distributed monoliths are built like monoliths but deployed similarly to microservices. Here, we have the worst of both worlds: tightly coupled services with the complexity of microservices. We usually get here by developing microservice architecture wrongly. So, to fix this, we need to do some monolith decomposition. There are a few approaches that can help here: 𝟭. 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗶𝗴 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 The Strangler Fig Pattern (Coined by Martin Fowler) comes from a collection of plants that grow by "strangling" their hosts. This pattern enables the replacement of specific functionality with new services. Here, we create a facade that intercepts requests going to the monolith and routes these requests to the monolith or new services. We gradually migrate old functionality to new services, yet consumers hit the facade all the time. Here, you can also use 𝗗𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻-𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 (𝗗𝗗𝗗) to incrementally refactor the application into smaller services, where you first find ubiquitous languages (common vocabulary) between all stakeholders, then identify relevant modules to apply this vocabulary to them and define domain models of the monolithic application. In the last step, you define bounded contexts for the models, which are boundaries within a domain. 𝟮. 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗵 𝗯𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 With this approach, we create an abstraction layer over our original component so that we can replace it step by step. Client requests are directed to this layer, which allows us to change everything behind it. The client will only hit the new component when we finish the changes. With this pattern, we can coexist two implementations of the same functionality, the true Liskov substitution principle. Although, like the Strangler Fig pattern, we are working on a slightly lower level of abstraction with this one, where our focus is more on components than the systems. If you're interested in this approach, I recommend Sam Newman's book Monolith to Microservices. #technology #softwareengineering #programming #techworldwithmilan #softwarearchitecture

"Strangler Application Pattern" - A design pattern for Cloud native software? I converted a legacy mobile application that I have made into a cloud native application as the individual project for my degree. ☁️ Because I did not find a specific design architecture in my research, to use in the conversion of such applications, suggesting a set of new cloud architecture approaches namely, 1. Monolithic 2. Microservice 3. Serverless was what I resorted to do. 💯 Even then I couldn't categorize the database element properly in my classification. Couple of months go by, and I find this post on a Microservices Transition Strategy that makes more sense and that I could later use in a #cloud adoptation. And naturally, it feels good to get the answers to questions you didn't know you had! The learning never stops and that is one big reason for me to be in the cloud! ❤️ #cloudengineering #designpatterns #northernireland #NI #devops

♻ Microservices vs. Monolithic Architecture: Choosing the Right Path 🏗️ In the ever-evolving world of software development, selecting the right architecture is crucial. While monolithic architectures offer simplicity and ease of deployment, microservices bring flexibility and scalability to the table. 🔍 Monolithic Architecture: Ideal for smaller projects with less complexity, where everything is interconnected and deployed as a single unit. 🔍 Microservices Architecture: Perfect for large-scale applications that require independent deployment, better fault isolation, and the ability to scale specific components as needed. As technology advances, understanding these architectures helps in making informed decisions for building robust, scalable, and maintainable applications. Here is a Brief Introduction below 👇 #NervescapeAnalyticsLLP #Microservices #MonolithicArchitecture #ArchitectureDesign #Scalability #TechTrends #Programming #CloudComputing #DevOps

3wSir... I say this with the utmost love and respect for your work and your posts... "preventing technical debt" is impossible. It can be minimized. It can never be completely avoided.
