👉 Headed computing, also known as service-oriented architecture (SOA) or microservices architecture, is a design paradigm where applications are constructed from loosely coupled, modular services that communicate over a network. Each service is responsible for a specific business capability and can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently, promoting flexibility, agility, and resilience. This approach contrasts with monolithic architectures, where all components are tightly integrated within a single codebase. In headed computing, services often have well-defined interfaces and protocols, enabling seamless integration and interoperability across diverse systems and platforms. This architecture facilitates continuous delivery, easier maintenance, and the ability to leverage existing technologies and expertise, making it particularly suitable for complex, dynamic, and rapidly evolving business environments.
