Architecting the decoupled enterprise

Creating a digital architecture that supports an agile enterprise isn't easy... you have to facilitate a faster delivery culture whilst still being secure and scalable.

To help deliver this, I think you need to design an enterprise architecture that is 'decoupled'.

A decoupled architecture is a software architecture in which different components of a system are loosely coupled, meaning that they are not tightly interdependent. This allows the components to be developed, tested, and deployed independently, which can improve the overall flexibility and scalability of the system.

There are many different ways to decouple a software architecture. Some common techniques include:
  • Using APIs to communicate between components
  • Using message queues to pass data between components
  • Using event-driven architecture
