decoupled modules
[dɪˈkaʊpəld ˈmɒdjuːlz]
nounpl: decoupled modules
módulos desacoplados
1. Independent software or hardware components that are designed to function separately and interact through well-defined interfaces, reducing dependencies between them
The microservices architecture uses decoupled modules to allow independent scaling and deployment of different services.
A arquitetura de microsserviços utiliza módulos desacoplados para permitir dimensionamento e implantação independentes de diferentes serviços.
2. Software design pattern where modules do not directly depend on each other's internal implementation details
Decoupled modules make the codebase easier to test and maintain because changes in one module don't require changes in others.
Os módulos desacoplados tornam a base de código mais fácil de testar e manter porque alterações em um módulo não exigem alterações em outros.
This is a fundamental concept in modern software engineering practiced globally. The term is used identically in Brazilian Portuguese technical documentation, academic settings, and corporate environments. It reflects the shift from monolithic software design to distributed, scalable architectures that became dominant in the 2010s with the rise of cloud computing and microservices.
