Top Architect focuses on sharing practical architecture knowledge, covering enterprise, system, website, large‑scale distributed, and high‑availability architectures, plus architecture adjustments using internet technologies. We welcome idea‑driven, sharing‑oriented architects to exchange and learn together.
This guide walks you through installing ZLMediaKit, configuring FFmpeg, setting up a Spring Boot backend with process management, and creating a web player to stream and view video content using RTMP and HTTP-FLV protocols.
This article provides a detailed technical walkthrough of a typical payment platform architecture, covering the overall system overview, core transaction and payment modules, service governance mechanisms such as unified context and data consistency, and practical production practices like performance testing and asynchronous processing.
This article explains how to design and implement a three‑level cache pyramid (Caffeine → Redis → MySQL) in Spring Boot 3, covering configuration, a reusable CacheTemplate, hot‑key handling, random TTL, warm‑up, monitoring, and load‑test results that show latency dropping from tens of milliseconds to a few milliseconds while cutting CPU and network usage dramatically.
MySQL Router 8.2 now supports automatic read/write splitting for InnoDB ReplicaSet clusters, allowing reads to be routed to replicas and writes to the primary without any changes to application code, as demonstrated through configuration steps, connection examples, and practical observations.
Discover how to set up MySQL InnoDB ReplicaSet and configure MySQL Router 8.2 for automatic read/write splitting, enabling reads to be routed to replicas and writes to the primary without code changes, complete with step-by-step commands, configuration snippets, and visual verification.
This article introduces Hutool, a comprehensive Java utility library, outlines its main modules such as SecureUtil, HtmlUtil, and CronUtil, provides code snippets for common tasks like password hashing, HTML escaping, and scheduling, and shares practical tips for integrating these tools into applications.
A newcomer replaced MyBatis with MyBatis‑Plus in an old MySQL‑based project, encountered a "Conversion not supported for type java.time.LocalDateTime" error, traced it to MyBatis 3.5.1 dropping built‑in type handling and an outdated mysql‑connector‑java driver, and resolved it by upgrading the driver while also fixing a related validation bug that caused production failures.
A senior architect recounts twelve common coding habits—like over‑splitting services, endless method length, deep nesting, misleading comments, and missing logs—that dramatically reduce code readability and increase maintenance difficulty, illustrating each with vivid examples from a fictional developer.
This article explains how to redesign Spring MVC controllers by extracting common responsibilities, defining a standard response wrapper, using ResponseBodyAdvice for automatic packaging, handling String return types, and implementing comprehensive validation and custom exception handling to produce clean, maintainable backend code.
A senior architect recounts a code review where a colleague wrapped a simple two‑payment‑method order system in strategy, factory, and abstract‑factory patterns, then explains why such over‑design hurts maintainability, when to apply complex patterns, and practical guidelines for clean backend architecture.
