Architectural flexibility supports system decoupling by providing the ability to make changes to different components of the system without affecting other components. This means that each component can be developed and deployed independently without impacting the overall system.
For example, a microservices architecture allows for each microservice to be developed and deployed separately, which allows for changes to be made to one microservice without affecting the others. This promotes a high degree of flexibility and modularity, making it easy to modify or replace individual components as needed.
Another way architectural flexibility supports system decoupling is through the use of APIs. APIs provide a way for different components of a system to communicate with one another through a standard interface. This interface abstracts the underlying implementation details of each component, allowing them to be changed or replaced without affecting the rest of the system.
In summary, architectural flexibility supports system decoupling by enabling the development and deployment of independent components, and providing standardized interfaces for communication between components. This allows for greater flexibility and agility in making changes to the system as a whole.
