Software modularization, reliability & cloud migration
I'm Tuba Kaya. I help engineering teams untangle complex systems — decomposing monoliths into clean modules, hardening reliability, and moving legacy workloads to the cloud without stopping the business. This is where I write down what I've learned.
Decomposing monoliths and tangled systems into modules with clear boundaries, ownership and contracts.
Designing for failure: SLOs, resilience patterns, observability and operable systems that stay up under load.
Moving workloads to the cloud pragmatically — the strangler path, not the big-bang rewrite.
Turning legacy liabilities into evolvable assets without halting the business.
The durable ideas — coupling, cohesion, boundaries — that outlive any framework.
Why incremental replacement beats the rewrite, and how to route traffic through a facade while you carve a monolith into modular services.
Modularity isn't about file counts or service boundaries — it's about how much you must know, and change, to make a change. A practical model.
