Architectural writings, system modernization playbooks, and LLM implementations by Samuel Mofrad.
codeworking.org is Samuel Mofrad's dedicated technical portal covering complex engineering topics that go beyond standard tutorials. It features comprehensive teardowns of enterprise architectures, benchmarks of Java EE vs modern cloud frameworks, practical Strangler Fig migrations, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server blueprints.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is revolutionizing how Large Language Models interact with real-world enterprise infrastructure. Rather than relying on fragile custom integrations, MCP provides an open, standardized protocol for AI models to securely discover and invoke tools, query vector databases, and execute controlled operations.
When scaling microservice architectures to hundreds of thousands of events per second, traditional synchronous REST communication quickly becomes a liability. In this article, we explore how decoupled event-driven architectures powered by Apache Kafka and Spring Boot provide resilience, backpressure handling, and sub-millisecond data pipelines.
