Architecture Pattern

Noun · Development

Definitions

  1. A reusable high-level solution shape for organizing software systems, such as layered architecture, event-driven systems, or CQRS. Architecture patterns help teams reason about structure and tradeoffs, but they still need to be adapted to the actual workload and constraints.

    In plain English: A common high-level way of structuring a software system.

    Example: "They chose a publish-subscribe architecture pattern because multiple downstream services needed to react independently to order state changes."
