Define Coding in an independent service architecture
Coding in an independent service architecture alleviates many of the traditional dependencies of monolithic applications. Designers must think of each component as a modular service. These modular service elements allow the developer to group similar procedural logic into responding or server components. These components, comprised of potentially many functions, act logically as whole objects to client (requesting) modules and are to be addressed only over very clear application boundaries.
Separating each logical application component from the other clearly delineates which code belongs in the server component and how the components are to interact. This will give flexibility as to the physical location of the components. The interface between components should remain the same whether the component is located over a network or on another machine.
