Overview of this book

Enterprise Architecture (EA) is typically an aggregate of the business, application, data, and infrastructure architectures of any forward-looking enterprise. Due to constant changes and rising complexities in the business and technology landscapes, producing sophisticated architectures is on the rise. Architectural patterns are gaining a lot of attention these days. The book is divided in three modules. You'll learn about the patterns associated with object-oriented, component-based, client-server, and cloud architectures. The second module covers Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) patterns and how they are architected using various tools and patterns. You will come across patterns for Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), Resource-Oriented Architecture (ROA), big data analytics architecture, and Microservices Architecture (MSA). The final module talks about advanced topics such as Docker containers, high performance, and reliable application architectures. The key takeaways include understanding what architectures are, why they're used, and how and where architecture, design, and integration patterns are being leveraged to build better and bigger systems.

Software-Defined Clouds - the Architecture and Design Patterns

The cloud paradigm is on the fast track. There are a number of game-changing advancements in the cloud space, and hence the adoption rate of the cloud concept is consistently on the rise. Legacy applications are being accordingly modified and migrated to cloud environments (private, public, and hybrid). There is a bevy of enabling tools for cloud migration, integration, orchestration, brokerage, deployment, delivery, and management propping up the strategically relevant cloud journey. There are integrated processes, best practices, key guidelines, evaluation metrics, highly synchronized platforms, and so on to make the cloud idea penetrative, participative, and pervasive. Furthermore, there is a growing family of architectural and design patterns for producing optimized cloud environments and applications. This chapter...
