- Modular Monolith: One deploy, clear boundaries, strong consistency.
- Microservices: Multiple deploys, independent scaling, higher ops cost.
- Event-Driven: Async workflows, eventual consistency, needs idempotency.
- API Gateway: Single entry point, unified auth, rate limiting.
- Multi-Tenant: Shared infra, data isolation, per-tenant configuration.
- Micro-kernel: Small core + plugins with strict contracts; ideal for client-customizable behavior.
- Layered / N-Tier: Classic UI/business/data split; fine for small internal apps.
