The cloud architecture is the way how individual technologies are integrated to form virtual clouds, that is the IT environments which abstract, and group, scale, and share the resources available in some network to be used as platform for the execution of applications and services. Organizations adopting cloud architecture often shift IT resources to the public cloud, eliminating the need for on-premises servers and storage, and there are different kind of cloud services like Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS)and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).

Cloud Architectures - Overview

Containers are technologies which allow to package and isolate applications together with all their execution environment, there is, with all the arquives necessary to execute them. They are more portable, more resource-efficient in nature, more secure and easily to deploy.

Containerization - Overview

While the lightweight desing of web servers is enough to process high traffic of static resources there is request throughout the Internet, dynamic resources, often in the form of applications, requires additional assistance. The use of application servers insert another layer to the whole operation. So, not only the application servers is put in the middle of web servers and the precious database servers to help and to protect this operation, but it also is capable of providing program redundancy to the web server operation, beside the capacity to process more complicated business logic for requests, which, in terms, would make an attempt to SQL Injection much harder.

Application Servers - Overview

A web server is a kind of server that works as a middleman application between the actual server and the clients, pulling content from the server on each user request and returning it across the Web. And speaking in a more specific way, web servers are the machines responsible to store the web contents over the Internet, such as text, images, videos and application data. Their most common type of clients are the web browsers, which is a client application that makes requests to the web server from links or from URL addresses in general. The communication between server and clients is done through the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

Web Servers - Overview

A server is a computer designed to process and deliver data to others computers over a network, being web servers some of the most famous while they are responsible to process requests and deliver data across the Wide World Web. And, eventhough a server application software may be installed in most current machines, usually servers designate high end machines that are able to serve to a lot of clients. Some types of servers available are Web Servers, Application Servers and Storage Servers, etc.

Concepts and Types of Servers - Overview

As a programming paradigm, AOP aims to reduces code clutter and improve maintainability and readability of the code by isolating concerns at the application. It should be highlighted that AOP does not come to replace OOP, but to add and complement it by providing another way to the application to improve in modularity and also become cleaner.

Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP)

ReabbitMQ is a software that defines queues to which applications can connect in order to transfer messages. And that these messages could just be just a simple text message, or it could could be something more elaborated like some kind of metadata information to be use as resource in other applications, etc. And it uses the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP).

RabbitMQ - Overview

Network communiction has made message-based exchange between applications a routine job, allowing for a much more diverse job of exchanging data and even the possibilities of realtime scenarios. So there is the necessity to define elements of architectural patterns, data formats and communication protocols, so the procedure can be properly achieved.

Data Exchange Formats and Patterns

In traditional web development the pages are rendered at the Server-Side, meaning that a server is responsible to receive requisitions from clients and return a web page to the client. But today there more ways of rendering pages, besides the use of many new architectures that aim for extending the experience of a web page or a web app. Models like Single Page Application (SPA), Progressive Web Application (PWA), the Flux Architecture, the Streams API, etc.

Front-end Architectures

Patterns is a recent practice that is beign introduced to the Front-end development context. One of the first patterns to be appear some years ago is the MVC (Model-View-Controller), a pattern dedicated to improve the software architecture by appling Separation of Concerns (SoC) to the software system.

Front-end Development Patterns
