Could you tell me about different types of application architectures you've encountered?

Among the application architectures I have encountered, the following popular types can be distinguished:
- Monolithic architecture — a traditional approach where all components are tightly coupled and deployed together. Suitable for small projects but hard to scale.
- Client-server architecture — separation into client part (e.g., web interface) and server that handles logic and data.
- Microservices architecture — application is divided into independent services communicating via APIs. Easier to scale and maintain but requires complex infrastructure.
- MVC (Model-View-Controller) — separates data model, presentation, and control logic. Common in web apps.
- Event-driven architecture — components interact through events, enabling flexible and scalable systems.
Example of simple MVC in Python with Flask:
from flask import Flask, render_template
app = Flask(__name__)
# Model
users = ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie']
# Controller
@app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template('index.html', users=users)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
Here, the model is a list of users, the controller is the index function, and the view is an HTML template.
