HexaLayered Architecture
HexaLayered Architecture is an innovative architectural approach developed for Spring Boot applications, combining the advantages of Hexagonal (Ports and Adapters) and Layered architectures. This architecture aims to develop scalable and sustainable applications by combining modularity and simplicity.
Basic Principles
1. Modularity
Each module is independent in itself and isolated from other modules.
2. Layered Structure
The application is divided into layers with specific responsibilities.
3. Port and Adapter Distinction
Communication with external systems is provided through ports and adapters.
4. Domain Focused Design
Business logic is shaped around domain objects.
Architectural Layers
1. Controller Layer
HTTP meets requests and manages responses.
2. Service Layer
It contains business logic and performs operations on domain objects.
3. Port/Adapter Layer
It provides communication with external systems and transforms domain objects.
4. Repository Layer
Performs database operations.
Advantages
1. Flexibility
Interaction with external systems can be easily changed.
2. Testability
Each layer can be tested independently.
3. Ease of Maintenance
Simple, clean and organized construction facilitates long-term maintenance.
4. Scalability
The modular structure supports the growth of the application.
