Software Architecture for Distributed and Cloud-Native Systems
Designing Scalable, Resilient Infrastructure for Modern and Emerging Markets
About the Book
Software Architecture for Distributed and Cloud-Native Systems is a practical field guide for engineers and technology leaders building scalable, reliable, and resilient systems in modern and emerging markets. Drawing from real-world experience architecting mission-critical platforms in Africa’s fastest-growing tech ecosystem, this book bridges foundational distributed-systems theory with hands-on cloud-native engineering practice.
From microservices and event-driven architectures to Kubernetes, serverless computing, and AIOps, it explores the patterns, trade-offs, and architectural decisions behind high-scale platforms. You’ll learn how to design systems that remain performant under millions of users, survive regional outages, and adapt to unpredictable infrastructure realities common in emerging technology environments.
Packed with case studies, architecture blueprints, war stories, and lessons from production, this book is an essential manual for engineers, architects, and technical leaders preparing to build the next generation of globally distributed systems.
