CASE ANALYSIS
Scenario
A food delivery platform needs a scalable layered architecture to handle user, restaurant, order, and delivery services. The architecture separates concerns across presentation, gateway, business logic, and data layers, while integrating external services for payments and mapping.
Key decisions
- Use an API Gateway to route client requests to appropriate microservices
- Adopt separate databases per service for data isolation and independent scaling
- Integrate with external payment and mapping providers via dedicated services
When to reuse this
Ideal when designing a cloud-native multi-sided platform with mobile and web clients, requiring modular services and clear separation of concerns.
