- Modern Solution Architecture — Volume 1Designing Scalable, Secure, and Distributed SystemsModern systems must scale globally, integrate across complex environments, and remain secure under real-world constraints. Modern Solution Architecture — Volume 1 is a complete, practical guide for engineers, architects, and technology leaders who want to design platforms that work reliably in production.Grounded in hands-on experience across banking, telecommunications, government, startups, and global tech companies, this book covers foundations, modeling, networking, integration, APIs, distributed systems, security, data, cloud architecture, and 30+ real-world design blueprints. What You Will Learn:Architecture Foundations – Roles, responsibilities, industry variations, decision frameworks (SPACE, risk–innovation), tools of trade, real project examples.Modeling Techniques – UML, sequence diagrams, ERDs, activity flows, C4 Model (context, container, component, code), functional specs, and modeling case studies (LMS, portals, monitoring systems).Networking & Cloud Connectivity – Leaf–spine fabrics, VPC/VNet design, segmentation, VPNs, MPLS, SD-WAN, Private Link, DNS routing, CDNs, Anycast, peering, cross-cloud communication, and protocol deep dives (HTTP, WebSocket, gRPC, BGP, MQTT, AMQP, Raft, Gossip, OAuth2, TLS/mTLS).Enterprise Integration & Messaging – Routing, aggregation, enrichment, message brokers (Kafka, RabbitMQ, ActiveMQ), DLQ patterns, digital identity integration, legacy modernization, and CDC with Debezium.Architectural Styles & Patterns – SOA, microservices, bounded contexts, monolith vs microservice trade-offs, Sagas, CQRS, Event Sourcing, leader election, service discovery (DNS, Eureka, Consul).API Management – API gateways, reverse proxies, service meshes, JWT, OAuth2, mTLS, throttling, rate limiting algorithms, circuit breakers, retry logic, backoff strategies, and topology patterns.API Design & Communication – REST best practices, GraphQL optimization, caching, real-time communication (WebSockets, SSE, long polling), idempotency, and safe retry patterns.Data & Database Architecture – SQL/NoSQL, sharding, replication, indexing, consistency models, distributed transactions, lakehouse design, CDC, data governance, masking, retention, audit trails.Security Architecture – Zero Trust, OWASP Top 10, threat modeling (STRIDE), encryption, certificates, IAM, secrets management, secure-by-design principles.Distributed Systems & Cloud Native – CAP, HA/DR, multi-region design, autoscaling, caching, CDN integration, Kubernetes, serverless patterns, observability, logs, metrics, tracing, correlation IDs.Governance & Soft Skills – ADRs, architecture documentation, decision records, stakeholder communication, conflict resolution, negotiation, governance practices, and leadership.10 Real-World Case Studies Who This Book Is For:Software Engineers moving into architectureSolution, Cloud, Enterprise, and Security ArchitectsTech Leads, DevOps Engineers, and SREsStudents and professionals preparing for senior-level interviewsEngineering Managers and CTOs building high-scale platformsOperations and support engineers About the AuthorStanley Makori is an Engineering Leader and Solution Architect with experience designing high-scale platforms across Africa and global technology companies.
