> We propose moving towards a three-tier architecture where presentation (client), business logic and data are separated. This has also been called a service-based architecture. The applications (clients) would no longer be able to access the database directly, but only through a well-defined interface that encapsulates the business logic required to perform the function.
It is really interesting to see a recent(ish) trend away from this three tier design and back towards tighter coupling between application layers. Usually due to increased convenience & developer ergonomics.
We've got tools that 'generate' business layers from/for the data layer (Prisma, etc).
We've got tools that push business logic to the client (Meteor, Firebase, etc)
