Software Architecture — Pattern Catalogue
In the field of software architecture, the effective use of architectural patterns is key to the design of robust, scalable and maintainable applications. This pattern catalogue serves as a guide for software architects, providing short descriptions and practical applications of various architectural patterns. The catalogue includes a wide range of patterns, each of which addresses specific architectural challenges and provides solutions to common design problems.
I have grouped these patterns into categories to make it easier to understand. These categories are communication, performance, stability and organizational patterns. This provides a structured approach to understanding their roles and applications. The list is not complete and if you miss an important, please let me know in the comments.
Communication patterns, such as Asynchronous Messaging and Publish-Subscribe Pattern, focus on how system components interact. Performance patterns, such as the Batch Request and Competing Consumers patterns, aim to improve system efficiency and throughput. Stability patterns, such as the Retry Pattern and the Saga Pattern, improve system resilience and reliability. Organizational patterns, including the Model-View-Controller (MVC) and Blackboard patterns, help structure and maintain the code base. This clustering helps software architects select the…
