Primes

• Design Patterns

  • This sourceManning. Comprehensive 44-pattern catalog for microservices (Saga, CQRS, Event Sourcing, API Gateway, Service Discovery, Circuit Breaker).

• False Dilemma
  • Product and engineering design — "should we build A or B?" suppresses smaller versions of both, hybrids, do-nothing, and reframings of the underlying need. Software architecture — "microservices or monolith," "SQL or NoSQL," which crowd out modular monoliths, polyglot persistence, and staged migrations.

    This sourceCatalogs 44 patterns for service decomposition and monolith refactoring, treating monolith-versus-microservices as a design spectrum (including the modular monolith and staged migration) rather than a binary, supporting the software-architecture use.

Mechanisms

• API Gateway
  • The gateway is a single point of failure

    This sourceTreats the API gateway as the single entry point for external requests and notes that its unavailability blocks external access to backend services.

• Transactional Outbox
  • Its strength is decisive: it removes the entire class of dual-write bugs
