Software Architecture Fundamentals 2nd Edition, Chapter 16: Space-based Architecture
Show notes
No, it has nothing to do with outer space but rather tuple space. We continue our survey of architectural styles with an exotic one, Space-based architecture, which answers the question: how can you design an architecture that can handle several hundred thousand simultaneous requests...before cloud providers existed. Today, this architecture style is used for caching and other high volume problems. Join us as we describe this architecture style, how it works, what's good and bad, and how it's still useful today.
