Exploring Software Architectural Styles

What is the primary characteristic of Layered Architecture?

• Direct communication between all components without layers.

• Use of a monolithic structure for application design.

• Integration of all components into a single layer.

• Separation of concerns through distinct layers.

In data flow Architecture, what triggers the flow of data?

• Data storage

• System configurations

• Events

• User actions

What are the main components of data centered Architecture?

• Client and Middleware

• Client and Database

• Client and Server

• Server and Network

What is a common use case for Layered Architecture?

• Web application development

• Desktop application design

• Mobile game development

• Database management systems

How does a client communicate with a server in Client-Server Architecture?

• A client communicates with a server using physical mail.

• A client communicates with a server by directly accessing its database.

• A client sends data to the server only during initialization.

• A client communicates with a server by sending requests and receiving responses over a network.

What are the advantages of using Layered Architecture?

• Limited flexibility for changes

• Advantages of using Layered Architecture include improved separation of concerns, enhanced maintainability, scalability, and easier testing and updates.

• Increased complexity in design

• Higher costs for implementation

What is a potential drawback of data centered Architecture?

• Increased security risks.

• Complexity in scaling the system.

• Single point of failure.

• High latency in communication.

What is the purpose of the presentation layer in Layered Architecture?

• To manage user interface and presentation logic.

• To define network protocols and communication methods.

• To handle database connections and data storage.

• To manage security and access control.

Which of the following is an optimal design style?
