There are multiple ways to design a solution. A solution architect needs to take the right approach based on user requirements along with the architecture constraints of cost, performance, scalability, and availability. In this chapter, you will learn about various solution architecture patterns along with reference architectures and how to apply them in real-world scenarios.

In the previous chapters, you learned about the attributes and principles of solution architecture design. This chapter is both exciting and essential as you will be able to apply your learning to various architecture design patterns. In this chapter, you will gain an understanding of some of the significant solution architecture patterns, such as layered, event-driven, microservice, loosely coupled, service-oriented, and RESTful architectures.
