Tiivistelmä
Changeability is a non-functional property of software that affects the length of its lifecycle. In this work, the microservices architectural pattern and TypeScript are studied through a literature review, focusing on how they enable the changeability of a web application.
The modularity of software is a key factor in enabling changeability. The micro-services architectural pattern and the programming language TypeScript can impact the changeability of web applications with modularity. Microservices architecture is a well-suited architectural pattern for web applications, as it allows for the creation of modular service components that can be modified and added to the system individually. TypeScript is a programming language that adds a type system and class-based object-oriented programming to JavaScript offering an array of features that enable modularity.
Through discussion on relationships between the changeability of web applications and their three key characteristics, scalability, robustness, and security, this work demonstrates the importance of designing for change to ensure that web applications remain maintainable, extensible, restructurable, and portable over time. Combined, the micro-services architecture and TypeScript can enhance the modularity and thus changeability of web applications.
