The separation between layers and tiers in service-oriented architectures holds software developers back from being productive. By making relationships first-class citizens and using implicit services, Vertically Integrated Architectures can increase developer productivity and quality. This book is for software architects, senior software developers, computer science professionals, and students, and the open source community.

Service-oriented architectures (SOAs) are a popular software design pattern that promotes the separation of layers and tiers to improve scalability, flexibility, and maintainability. However, the separation between these layers can also hinder software developers from being truly productive. In this article, we will explore why this separation holds developers back and how they can remedy the problem.
Strong processes and development tools can help developers write more complex software, but large amounts of code can still be directly deduced from the underlying database model, hampering developer productivity. In a world with a shortage of developers, this is bad news. More code also increases maintenance costs and the risk of bugs, meaning less time is spent improving the quality of systems.
To overcome these challenges, we will learn that by making relationships first-class citizens within an item/relationship model, we can develop an extremely compact query language, inspired by natural language. This model can serve as both a database schema and an object model upon which to build business logic. Implicit services free us from writing code for standard read/write operations, while still supporting fine-grained authorization.
Vertically Integrated Architectures (VIA) explains how functional schema mappings can solve database migrations and service versioning at the same time, and how all this can support any client, from free-format to fully vertically integrated types. VIA can drastically increase developer productivity and quality.
What You'll Learn:
See how the separation between application server and database in a SOA-based architecture might be justifiable from a historical perspective, but can also hold us back.
Examine how the vertical integration of application logic and database functionality can drastically increase developer productivity and quality.
Review why application developers only need to write pure business logic.
