Software Architecture Patterns for Serverless Systems

Chapter 1: Architecting for Innovation

Companies are embarking on a digital transformation in an effort to continuously deliver business value and compete effectively. Business requirements are changing constantly, more so than ever before. Businesses must be lean and need to experiment to find optimal solutions. To accomplish this, software architecture and software development practices must work together to support delivering business value in a dynamic environment.

In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:

  • Continuously delivering business value
  • Taking control of lead time
  • Dissecting integration styles
  • Enabling autonomous teams with autonomous services

Key benefits

  • Learn best practices for designing enterprise-grade software systems from a seasoned CTO
  • Deeper your understanding of system reliability, maintainability, and scalability
  • Elevate your skills to a professional level by learning the most effective software design patterns and architectural concepts

Description

As businesses are undergoing a digital transformation to keep up with competition, it is now more important than ever for IT professionals to design systems to keep up with the rate of change while maintaining stability. This book takes you through the architectural patterns that power enterprise-grade software systems and the key architectural elements that enable change (such as events, autonomous services, and micro frontends), along with showing you how to implement and operate anti-fragile systems. First, you’ll divide up a system and define boundaries so that your teams can work autonomously and accelerate innovation. You’ll cover low-level event and data patterns that support the entire architecture, while getting up and running with the different autonomous service design patterns. Next, the book will focus on best practices for security, reliability, testability, observability, and performance. You’ll combine all that you've learned and build upon that foundation, exploring the methodologies of continuous experimentation, deployment, and delivery before delving into some final thoughts on how to start making progress. By the end of this book, you'll be able to architect your own event-driven, serverless systems that are ready to adapt and change so that you can deliver value at the pace needed by your business.

What you will learn

Explore architectural patterns to create anti-fragile systems that thrive with change Focus on DevOps practices that empower self-sufficient, full-stack teams Build enterprise-scale serverless systems Apply microservices principles to the frontend Discover how SOLID principles apply to software and database architecture Create event stream processors that power the event sourcing and CQRS pattern Deploy a multi-regional system, including regional health checks, latency-based routing, and replication Explore the Strangler pattern for migrating legacy systems

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
