Layered architecture organizes software into distinct layers, each with specific responsibilities, facilitating easier management, updates, and reuse. Common layers include Presentation, Application, Data Access, and Database, which interact to process user requests and manage data. While it offers advantages like improved security and maintainability, challenges include potential performance overhead and reduced flexibility due to strict layering.

Layered Architecture in

Object-Oriented Software
Engineering
A Simple Overview

by Yash Sharma
What is Layered Architecture?
Structure Roles Communication

Organizes a system into layers Each layer has a specific function Layers interact with adjacent layers
Key Benefits
1 Easier to manage and update

2 Each layer has a specific responsibility

3 Layers can be reused

4 Easier to expand as the application grows


Common Layers
Presentation Layer
Handles UI and user interactions

Application Layer
Manages business logic and operations

Data Access Layer


Connects to databases

Database Layer
Stores and manages data efficiently
How Layers Interact
Presentation Layer
Sends requests

Application Layer
Processes requests

Data Access Layer


Retrieves data

Database Layer
Stores data

Data Access Layer


Sends data back

Application Layer
Processes results

Presentation Layer
Displays results
Real-World Example:
Online Shopping

Website interface Processes user Fetches product


actions details

Stores user orders
