Inter-App Communication vs Direct Database Access
Developers should learn IAC when building distributed systems, microservices architectures, or applications that integrate with third-party services, as it enables decoupling and interoperability meets developers should use direct database access when they need maximum performance, such as in high-throughput systems like financial trading platforms or real-time analytics, where orm overhead is unacceptable. Here's our take.
