Decouple, detach and deliver!

I imagine that some of you will have replaced a website in the last 10 years. Indeed, some of you will have re-built features that replaced the same functionality in a previous website.

It’s expensive and time-consuming. Data integrity also suffers. The modern systems architect is increasingly turning to ‘de-coupling’ the front-end and back-end services of websites and apps, to allow current and future interfaces to be bolted on, keeping the functions that make stuff happen.

For example: Let’s say that your website features a login system, with a list of users held in a WordPress database. Registrations and validation take place in WordPress code.

You can also more carefully control who can access that information - delivering serious security benefits.

Want to make this property library available to another website? That’s simpler to do if it’s standalone, and means that the other websites aren’t required to re-build when you do!

This modern approach adds a little initial complexity, but provides significant cost-savings, security and flexibility over time.
