When Scaling Is Not An Option: A Simple Asynchronous Pattern

Architecture Corner Newsletter Podcast - exploring practical software architecture solutions for real-world challenges.In this episode we will cover:The three types of API requests and how to identify which ones can handle delayed responsesHow message queues can serve as a buffer to manage traffic spikes without infrastructure scalingTwo communication patterns for asynchronous processing: polling and callbacksLeveraging cloud services like AWS API Gateway and SQS for hybrid environmentsTrade-offs between immediate scaling costs and accepting delayed response timesWhen this tactical approach works best as a bridge solution while evolving your architectureFor more details check ⁠here⁠.If you are interested in more information about software development and architecture, subscribe for free to our ⁠newsletter⁠.---https://architecturecorner.substack,com
