Description
Harness the Power of the Multi-Dimensional Coupling Model as a Tool for Architecting Modular, Evolvable Software Systems
In this definitive guide, Vlad Khononov introduces a novel approach to designing modular software systems that turns coupling into a powerful design tool.
Software, like all systems, is composed of components that interact to form the system itself. Coupling is the metric used to represent the interdependence between connected components, and the magnitude of coupling ultimately affects the adaptability and success of the software system. Balancing Coupling in Software Design surveys existing methods of evaluating coupling and combines them into a comprehensive model for making design decisions that manage complexity while increasing the modularity of your software system.
Coupling is everywhere in software development. Whatever your job level or title, whether you are writing a function, designing an object model, or architecting distributed systems, this book is for you.
- Understand coupling and the ways it manifests itself in software design
- Evaluate the multi-dimensional forces of coupling
- Understand how the dimensions of coupling interact to impact your system
- Steer your systems away from complexity and toward modularity
The principles discussed in Balancing Coupling in Software Design are ubiquitously relevant in software engineering and will transform the way you think about software design.
- Harness coupling as a purposeful software design tool, and improve your designs whether you use microservices or not
- Get practical guidance for designing any modular distributed system
- The latest book in the important Addison-Wesley Signature Series from Vaughn Vernon—by Vladik (Vlad) Khononov, a world-renowned expert in modern software architecture
