The document discusses the evolution of application architecture from monolithic systems to microservices and low-code widgets, emphasizing the benefits of a service-based approach. Key points include the advantages of independent service deployment, improved user interfaces through specialized widgets, and faster time to market. Overall, it highlights how modern architectures enhance flexibility, scalability, and developer efficiency.
Application Development with Microservices and Widgets
- 1. 1 ACHIEVING FLEXIBLE DEVELOPMENT WITH SERVICES AND WIDGETS
- 2. 2 Industry trends in service-based architecture Leveraging a modern services architecture Business benefits AGENDA
- 3. 3 ARCHITECTURE TRENDS: IN THE BEGINNING Monolithic Applications • Single deployment • Tightly-coupled UI • Any change requires complete redeployment Data Business Logic User Interface
- 4. 4 ARCHITECTURE TRENDS: OLD-SCHOOL SOA Monolith + Services • Service layer on monolithic app • Service = function point • UI assembled from services • Changes isolated via service interface • Some business logic may be embedded in ESB Data Business Logic Services UI UI UI
- 5. 5 ARCHITECTURE TRENDS: INDEPENDENT DEPLOYMENT Microservice Stacks Data Logic Svcs UI UI Svcs Svcs Logic Logic Data Data • Decentralized, independently- deployable services • Service = business capability
- 6. 6 ARCHITECTURE TRENDS: LOW-CODE UI Widgets Data Logic Svcs Widget Svcs Svcs Logic Logic Data Data • Widget UI bundled into services • Portal UI assembled from widgets Portal Widget Widget
- 7. 7 Assemble services into applications • Reuse services/business capabilities • Consistent business logic • Faster time to market • Leverage model-driven development tools • Less developer experience required SERVICE ARCHITECTURE TECHNOLOGY BENEFITS
- 8. 8 Widgets improve user interface • Widget UI created by UI design specialists • Consistent user interface across applications • Developers focus on functionality SERVICE ARCHITECTURE TECHNOLOGY BENEFITS
- 9. 9 Built for change • Add a new capability by plugging in a new service • Microservice stacks developed, deployed and scaled independently • Leverage internal and external services SERVICE ARCHITECTURE TECHNOLOGY BENEFITS
- 10. 10 Faster time to market • Less development and testing time Easier scalability • Services can be scaled independently Improved user experience • Standardized widgets across all applications SERVICE ARCHITECTURE BUSINESS BENEFITS
