Make Software Architecture Choices That Maximize Value and
Innovation
"[Vernon and Jaskula] provide insights, tools, proven best practices,
and architecture styles both from the business and engineering
viewpoint. . . . This book deserves to become a must-read for practicing
software engineers, executives as well as senior managers."
--Michael Stal, Certified Senior Software Architect, Siemens

Strategic Monoliths and Microservices helps business
decision-makers and technical team members clearly understand their
strategic problems through collaboration and identify optimal
architectural approaches, whether the approach is distributed
microservices, well-modularized monoliths, or coarser-grained services
partway between the two.
Leading software architecture experts Vaughn Vernon and Tomasz Jaskula
show how to make balanced architectural decisions based on need and
purpose, rather than hype, so you can promote value and innovation,
deliver more evolvable systems, and avoid costly mistakes. Using
realistic examples, they show how to construct well-designed monoliths
that are maintainable and extensible, and how to gradually redesign and
reimplement even the most tangled legacy systems into truly effective
microservices.
- Link software architecture planning to business innovation and digital
transformation
- Overcome communication problems to promote experimentation and
discovery-based innovation
- Master practices that support your value-generating goals and help you
invest more strategically
- Compare architectural styles that can lead to versatile, adaptable
applications and services
- Recognize when monoliths are your best option and how best to
architect, design, and implement them
- Learn when to move monoliths to microservices and how to do it,
whether they're modularized or a "Big Ball of Mud"
