Description

Master the complexities of distributed systems with Software Architecture: The Hard Parts by O'Reilly. This book addresses the difficult problems in software design where no simple best practices exist. Instead of easy answers, you will learn to navigate the many compromises required in modern distributed architectures. Architecture veterans Neal Ford, Mark Richards, Pramod Sadalage, and Zhamak Dehghani provide expert strategies for making informed trade-off analyses. The authors use a unique approach by interweaving technical discussion with a story about the Sysops Squad, a fictional group of technology professionals. This method helps you think critically about the architectural decisions that define modern software systems.
