Software Architecture Fundamentals 2nd Edition, Chapter 3: Modularity

August 14, 2025 · 55 min

Show notes

A key concept for structural design in software architecture is modularity, which this episode dives into. We define the difference between modularity and granularity, and focus on some of the concrete measurements architects have to understand the macro structure of component-based systems. As usual, we also answer some great questions from our live audience.
