Make Software Architecture Choices That Maximize Value and Innovation
“[Vernon and Jaskuła] provide insights, tools, proven best practices, and architecture styles both from the business and engineering viewpoint. . . . This book deserves to become a must-read for practicing software engineers, executives as well as senior managers.”
–Michael Stal, Certified Senior Software Architect, Siemens Technology
Strategic Monoliths and Microservices helps business decision-makers and technical team members clearly understand their strategic problems through collaboration and identify optimal architectural approaches, whether the approach is distributed microservices, well-modularized monoliths, or coarser-grained services partway between the two.
Leading software architecture experts Vaughn Vernon and Tomasz Jaskuła show how to make balanced architectural decisions based on need and purpose, rather than hype, so you can promote value and innovation, deliver more evolvable systems, and avoid costly mistakes. Using realistic examples, they show how to construct well-designed monoliths that are maintainable and extensible, and how to gradually redesign and reimplement even the most tangled legacy systems into truly effective microservices.
Link software architecture planning to business innovation and digital transformation Overcome communication problems to promote experimentation and discovery-based innovation Master practices that support your value-generating goals and help you invest more strategically Compare architectural styles that can lead to versatile, adaptable applications and services Recognize when monoliths are your best option and how best to architect, design, and implement them Learn when to move monoliths to microservices and how to do it, whether they’re modularized or a “Big Ball of Mud”Register your book for convenient access to downloads, updates, and/or corrections as they become available.

Review
“Most books address either the business of software or the technical details of building software. Strategic Monoliths and Microservices provides a comprehensive approach to blending the needs of business and technology in an approachable way. It also dispels many of today’s myths while offering practical guidance that any team or organization can apply immediately and with confidence.”
–James Higginbotham, Executive API Consultant, Founder of LaunchAny, and author of Principles of Web API Design
“Digital Transformation cannot succeed as a ‘grass roots’ effort. Vaughn and Tomasz offer C-level execs a roadmap to software excellence that includes establishing the culture necessary to foster and sustain software innovation. Written with real-world understanding, Vaughn and Tomasz help the reader to appreciate that moving software development from a cost center to a profit center involves tradeoffs that need not sacrifice innovation. A must-read for decision makers.”
–Tom Stockton, Principal Architect, MAXIMUS
“In this book, Vaughn Vernon and Tomasz Jaskuła use their extensive experience with DDD to present a comprehensive guide to using the many different aspects of DDD for modern systems development and modernization. It will be a valuable guide for many technical leaders who need to understand how to use DDD to its full potential.”
–Eoin Woods, software architect and author
“There are common misconceptions and roots of failure around software engineering. One notable example is neglecting the rugged trek towards digital transformation. Such an endeavor comprises breakthrough innovations, failure culture, emphasis on the role of software architecture, as well as on the importance of efficient and effective inter-human communication. Fortunately, the authors offer the necessary help for mastering all hurdles and challenges. What I like most about this book is the holistic view it provides to all stakeholders involved in digital transformation and innovation. Vaugh
