Make Software Architecture Choices That Maximize Value and Innovation "[Vernon and Jaskuลa] 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 Jaskuลa 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.

A book with the right mindset on addressing Business from an Engineering perspective
A book so needed by the software industry and focusing on what's more needed, a book with a software perspective that addresses the business.Vaughn and Tomazs made a book accessible a complex topic as is strategic thinking towards Software Development. A book that helps not only Software Developers but people in other fields to __make the right questions to address the high-value business initiatives__.I do recommend this book to any software developer, architect, tech lead, or principal that works on complex domains. It gives you the right perspective and the tools to address these problems from a Strategic point of view.It's important that it gives _how_ and _why_ you should make decisions based on business. That's what makes more valuable the decisions made by engineering leadership. This book doesn't include the implementation part, which will come later in the next book, yet understanding this part is crucial to later have high-impact implementations. Without this good reasoning, it doesn't matter how good is the implementation if you are implementing the wrong thing.I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Already applying concepts in my day-to-day

Worth read
Good book explaining how to build the rationale behind some decisions and give important tips about the right time. I've been reading but I haven't done yet.

Book in excellent condition and very well written
This is a great book - though technical, I am able to zip through it because of how clearly it is written and how well organized the topics are.

Good content, super bad printing
I've been waiting for a physical copy of this book because I've started to read the digital edition and I knew the content is top notch.It is really a shame the printed version that arrived to me is so bad. The awful paper quality and ink makes it practically illegible and it feels like it has been badly cut.I will probably return it back and get the digital edition or find out if there are professionally printed versions of this book.
