FAQPage Schema
How do I design a backend architecture for a new project?โ–ผ

Backend architecture design involves iterative question-asking to gather requirements and recommend structural patterns like monolithic, microservices, or serverless. It includes tech stack selection and generates architecture documentation with Mermaid diagrams for clear visualization.

What is the best way to choose between monolithic and microservices architecture?โ–ผ

Choosing between monolithic and microservices architecture requires evaluating project requirements, scale, and component boundaries. By iteratively analyzing your specific use case, you can receive tailored recommendations on whether a monolithic, microservices, or serverless pattern fits best.

How do I generate Mermaid diagrams for backend architecture documentation?โ–ผ

Generating Mermaid diagrams for backend architecture documentation is achieved by defining system structure, component boundaries, and tech stack. The diagram visually maps the recommended architecture pattern, providing clear visualization for new projects or tech stack migrations.

When do I need to restructure my existing tech stack and backend architecture?โ–ผ

You need to restructure your backend architecture during major feature developments or tech stack migrations. This involves reviewing existing system structure and component boundaries, then iteratively planning an updated architecture design with appropriate pattern recommendations.

Can I use this approach for serverless pattern tech stack selection?โ–ผ

Yes, you can use this approach for serverless pattern tech stack selection. It assesses project requirements to recommend whether a serverless architecture fits your context, followed by suggesting an appropriate tech stack and generating supporting documentation.
