Logical Coupling, Service Layer Design, and Distributed System Architecture for Large-Scale Web Applications
The article examines the inevitability of service coupling in large‑scale web applications and proposes a two‑dimensional architecture that separates business and logic layers, uses internal data stores, introduces a naming‑and‑location service, selects appropriate transport and RPC protocols, and automates operations with health checks, load balancing, and failover to achieve continuous reliability.
