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.

Design patterns for web application development

Apart from the MVC, MVP, and MVVM architectural patterns, which were discussed in the previous sections, there are several design patterns that are used for the design of applications along with these patterns. In this section, we will discuss some of the commonly used design patterns for web application design. These patterns and their functionalities are described in the following table:

Interpreter design pattern

This pattern is widely used in the development of menus for applications like editors and Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). This pattern works by interpreting instructions that are written in the form of a language grammar or as notations. This pattern involves the implementation of an expression interface, which is used to interpret a given context.
