Be SOLID: uncle Bob

12th of October, 2017 / / 3 Comments

We have discussed STUPID issues in programming. The shared modules and tight coupling leads to dependency issues in design. The SOLID principles address those dependency issues in OOP.
SOLID acronym was popularized by Robert Martin as generic design principles dictated by common sense in OOP. They mainly address dependencies and tight coupling. We will discuss SOLID one by one and try to relate each of them with the underline problems and how they try to solve them.… [Keep reading] “Be SOLID: uncle Bob”

Don’t be STUPID: Design Principles 101

2nd of October, 2017 / / No Comments

When we talk about OOP, we think of classes and classes and so on. But mostly we don’t care about being lazy. I love it when programmers are lazy. It means they will write less code doing more work (being lazy the write way). More and more people often write too much code and that’s just STUPID. Now now don’t get all worked up, it’s the reality of most of the code we see and It’s important to not be STUPID before being SOLID.… [Keep reading] “Don’t be STUPID: Design Principles 101”

Back to Basics – Design Patterns – Part 2

9th of February, 2017 / / No Comments

In the previous post, we discussed design patterns, their structure and usage. Then we discussed the three fundamental types and started off with the first one – Creational Patterns.
Continuing with creational patterns we will now discuss Abstract Factory pattern, which is considered to be a super set of Factory Method.

Abstract Factory

In the Factory method, we discussed how it targets a single family of subclasses using a corresponding set of factory method classes, or a single factory method class via parametrised/ static factory method.… [Keep reading] “Back to Basics – Design Patterns – Part 2”

Back to Basics – Design Patterns – Part 1

Design Patterns

Design patterns are reusable solutions to recurring problems of software design and engineering in the real-world. Patterns makes it easier to reuse proven techniques to resolve design and architectural complications and then communicating and documenting them with better understanding, making them more accessible to developers in an abstract way.

Design patterns enhance the classic techniques of object oriented programming by encouraging the reusability and communication of the solutions of common problems at abstract levels and improves the maintainability of the code as a by-product at implementation levels.… [Keep reading] “Back to Basics – Design Patterns – Part 1”

Microservices – An Agile Architecture Introduction

31st of January, 2017 / / No Comments

In the ever evolving and dynamic world of software architecture, you will hear new buzz words every other month. Microservices is the latest of them, though not as new as it appears, it has been around for some time now in different forms.
Microservices – The micro of SOA?
        “… the microservice architectural style is an approach to developing a single application as a suite of small services, each running in its own process and communicating with lightweight mechanisms, often an HTTP resource API.… [Keep reading] “Microservices – An Agile Architecture Introduction”
