Architecture Case Studies

The main idea is to collect as much as possible different architecture-related case studies in one place.

Case studies might be different:

• Migration from one platform to another (Ruby on Rails -> Java)
• Solving scalability issues
• Migration from one architecture to another
  • E.g. from Monolith to SOA/Micro services
• Introducing polyglot programming and/or polyglot data

There are a lot to learn and investigate, thats why TODO was created to form backlog. In future items from backlog should be transformed into dedicated articles.
