Architecture Style

Noun · Development

Definitions

  1. A broad category of system organization such as monolithic, service-oriented, microservice, event-driven, or hexagonal architecture. Architecture style influences how teams deploy, test, scale, and reason about boundaries across the codebase.

    In plain English: The general structural style a system follows, such as monolith or microservices.

    Example: "The company stayed with a modular monolith architecture style because the team size did not justify splitting everything into independently deployed services."
