Understanding Your Options Helps You Determine Your Requirements
2-Tier Framework
A traditional framework is considered a 2-tier architecture (client side and server side) and is like a box of tinker toys and the fastest way to develop software. It’s a piece of software that supports the development of the front end (client-side) and back end (server-side) application software, including web services, resources, and APIs, that run on the web. A web framework helps you with your code based on your task, simplifying the development process. This architecture and application framework have several advantages, including reliability and reduced errors, easier maintenance, and faster development. And often the deciding factor, and because of all these pre-developed pieces, it is a cheaper way to build. The disadvantage is that web frameworks are typically monolithic and have limitations when customization is required. A 2-tier architecture can also see a decrease in performance when many users rely on the application at the same time. These are important factors to be aware of when deciding on a direction.
3-Tier or Modular Architecture
The concept of modular architecture is not new, but the idea of simply breaking up a system into a few parts, or tiers and layers, can be overlooked with the hype of new trigger words, like microservices and API-Driven development. However, in all cases, understanding all the elements within your architecture is critical regardless of which format you select for your transformation. The key is to define where the monolith can be separated naturally. Of course, this is easier said than done, but doing so will be the first step no matter how far you take the modular architecture design unless you’re starting from scratch. If this direction is best for your company, identify natural breaks within the system that suit your purposes and lead to a good solution. You may be surprised that modifying your monolithic system into a few parts can make it look much smaller, more manageable, and more scalable, opening up development to smaller teams that are not so reliant on each other.
“Tier” vs. “Layer” — The terms “Tier” and “Layer” are often used interchangeably because they denote a physical separation within the software. However, there is an important difference. A “Layer” is a functional separation of code within the software, but layers are found within “Tiers.” For example, a 2-Tier architecture (or client-server architecture) is typically made up of one Tier holding the UI layer (known as the client-side/front end) and a second tier holding a business logic layer and a database layer (or server-side/back end). A “Tier,” although also a physical separation, contains one or more layers, like a Ukrainian nesting doll – the Tier is the outside container that holds all the “layers” together and allows for scalability in development.
Micro-Frontend Framework
In keeping with the modular design and development that has gripped development, micro-frontend is a front end development pattern that splits up the client-side applications into smaller units and helps with the routing of multiple front end applications. Similar to Microservices, and almost the same as 3-tier, it splits the applications up into sections (front end, back end, & Database) so multiple teams ( independently ) can work on different features and various aspects of the application at the same time, creating a more flexible, end-to-end, architecture.
API-Driven “Framework”
Another form of web framework development that has gained popularity is using an Application Programming Interface, or API, as the foundation of the architecture. It may not sound like it but an API-driven architecture is a framework of rules. Separating the front and back ends from the “framework” eliminates the dependencies between the two and allows you to connect and disconnect at will without impacting other areas. Still, there can be challenges that accompany the transition. For one, they are a complex entity that can require much extra work throughout your system when integrated. And when done incorrectly, they are the first place hackers look for an entry point. However, Agile/DevOps/CI/CD development can thrive by uncoupling the front and back. What are the benefits? No longer does one development team have to keep track of everything. Instead, smaller, more agile teams specializing in different technologies can be deployed. In addition, technologies that could not be used before can now be considered. Indeed, there are pros and cons to be aware of when moving to an API-Driven architecture from an existing monolith. For one, it is more expensive than the 2-tiered web framework model. However, when done correctly, the higher initial costs are offset by the benefits gained through flexibility and the ability to select technologies that may have a deeper pool of developers in a tight market.
Microservices & Containers “Framework”
Microservices is a type of framework but it is almost exactly the opposite of what you are likely looking for when talking about an easy build budget friendly web framework. In a microservices architecture, the microservices and containers work together (although, should not be considered the same). A container is a way to allocate resources, while a microservice is a software design pattern. Microservices are often referred to as the peak of modularity, and this may be the case. Still, microservices can also become so big and unwieldy that they create an issue in manageability and cost. For this reason, plan and document as you go along so this does not happen. Containers assist in solving this. The benefits are also similar to an API-Driven architecture – smaller teams can work on different services without impacting other areas of the enterprise. Microservices does exactly what it says, turning tasks into micro-sized loosely coupled services connected by lightweight protocols (a loosely used term often used with APIs as well). We won’t detail the elements of the process here but know that multiple technologies can be used, and we can help you assess and determine the best way forward or assist your team with experienced on-demand co-development.

Where Should You Start?
Assess Your Monolith With Great Detail – Tech to Business
Do a detailed assessment of your architecture and consider all aspects of the business.
The first thing to do is have someone in your organization who can candidly detail your current architecture and define a way forward that fits your business. The assessment should consider all aspects of your IT structure, technology, and enterprise expectations, including a roadmap for short-term adjustments and long-term goals. It should also outline current resources, required resources to succeed, and areas needing temporary injections of expertise. Breaking apart a monolith is a big step and requires detailed planning, but in the end, it affords a structure that can react to requests and changes much more quickly.
Monolithic to Modular - What's Best For Your Company
Once your detailed assessment is complete, your migration begins from a monolithic system to a lighter-weight collection of autonomous services.
As the modules are identified and the decoupling process begins, we help you decompose applications by business capabilities, subdomains, technology & services. During this time, consider refactoring outdated applications or services that do not have natural separation points but should be separated into more agile modules. This is also an excellent time to consider your workflows and eliminate manual processes with updated process automation and intelligent data collection.

Cloud Migration & Integration
Better For Remote Work – Access Files & Applications From Anywhere
Easier to Scale With Business Growth
Part Of A Proven System That Is Maintained & Updated For You
It is essential to understand the differences between the wide range of choices you have and the leaders of the pack; Azure, AWS, and GCP. For example, one of the key differences between Azure and AWS is how they deal with temporary storage. Azure is based on page and block storage “Blobs” for virtual memory and object storage. At the same time, AWS assigns temporary storage during the instance and then deletes the data when the instance is terminated. So much to consider. Let Intertech experts help you evaluate which is best for your long-term needs or help you integrate into the one already selected.
