Key Features

Design modern C++ systems using features from C++11 through C++20 and beyond Explore distributed system design with observability, scalability, and maintainability in mind Manage and package C++ applications, and prepare them for deployment using CMake, Conan, and CI/CD

Book DescriptionDesigning scalable and maintainable software with C++ requires more than language expertise—it demands strong architectural thinking. This practical guide equips you with the skills to design and build robust, distributed systems using modern C++.

Starting with fundamental architectural principles and design philosophies, the book walks you through practical approaches to designing and deploying reliable systems. This edition contains significant updates across the book, including new chapters on observability, package management, and C++ modules to address real-world software challenges. You will explore software decomposition strategies, design and system patterns, fault tolerance, API management, and testability—all applied with C++.

Additionally, the book covers modern CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native design, microservices, and modular development, helping developers navigate today's fast-evolving software landscape. With updated examples and a renewed emphasis on maintainable and observable architectures, this edition equips C++ professionals to architect modern systems. By the end of this book, you will be able to design, build, test, and deploy well-architected solutions using modern C++ and proven architectural techniques.

Andrey Gavrilin is a seasoned software engineer whose eagerness for computer games led him to explore C++, Pascal, and assembly language. He holds an MSc degree in engineering (industrial automation) and has worked across several domains, which allowed him to understand the importance of quality software architecture. His interests include system programming, embedded development, game programming, and electronics. An enthusiast of retro gaming and vintage computing, he enjoys studying how older technologies inform modern system design. These hobbies complement his professional work, providing creative inspiration and a fresh perspective on the IT evolution. Adrian Ostrowski is a modern C++ enthusiast interested in the development of both the C++ language itself and the high-quality code written in it. A lifelong learner with over a decade of experience in the IT industry and in C++ specifically, he's always eager to share his knowledge. His past projects range from parallel computing, through fiber networking, to working on a commodity exchange's trading system. In his spare time, Adrian used to promote music bands together with Piotr and has learned how to fly a glider. He likes riding his bicycle, going to music events, and browsing memes. Piotr Gaczkowski has more than 10 years of experience in programming and practicing DevOps and uses his skills to improve people's lives. He likes building simple solutions to human problems, organizing cultural events, and teaching fellow professionals. Piotr is keen on automating boring activities and using his experience to share knowledge by conducting courses and writing articles about personal growth and remote work. He has worked in the IT industry both in full-time positions and as a freelancer, but his true passion is music. When not making his skills useful at work, you can find him building communities.
