[Verse 1]
Started with a monolith, all in one place
Everything together in a single space
But as we grew bigger, needed something new
Break it down to services, that's what we'll do
[Chorus]
Architecture patterns, choose the right design
Monolith or microservices, draw that dotted line
Bounded contexts, domain-driven way
CAP theorem guides us every single day
Consistency or availability, you can't have it all
Architecture patterns, standing ten feet tall
[Verse 2]
Service-oriented, contracts in between
Boundaries are sacred, keep your data clean
Event-driven systems, messages that flow
CQRS and saga patterns, watch your system grow
[Chorus]
Architecture patterns, choose the right design
Monolith or microservices, draw that dotted line
Bounded contexts, domain-driven way
CAP theorem guides us every single day
Consistency or availability, you can't have it all
Architecture patterns, standing ten feet tall
[Verse 3]
Hexagonal structure, ports and adapters clean
Dependency inversion, cleanest code you've seen
SOLID at the system level, principles that guide
Twelve-factor methodology, standards we provide
[Bridge]
When systems fail, we need to be prepared
Circuit breakers ready, bulkheads declared
Retry with backoff, timeouts that cascade
Service mesh routing, connections that we've made
[Verse 4]
REST and GraphQL, APIs that shine
Serverless functions, running just in time
Cold starts and edge computing, trade-offs that we know
Strangler fig migration, gradual way to grow
[Chorus]
Architecture patterns, choose the right design
Monolith or microservices, draw that dotted line
Bounded contexts, domain-driven way
CAP theorem guides us every single day
Consistency or availability, you can't have it all
Architecture patterns, standing ten feet tall
[Outro]
From data mesh to warehouses, storage patterns bright
Consensus with Raft protocol, keeping data right
Idempotency promised, exactly-once delivered
Architecture mastery, that's how we get it rivered
