Is Clean Architecture
always a
good idea?

A practical analysis of boundaries, abstractions and the cost of applying Clean Architecture to modern Spring Boot services.

Key questionWhen does architectural discipline create leverage, and when does it become accidental complexity?

02 / About

Engineering is not only about making systems work. It is about making complexity feel simple.

I'm Vinicius, a Brazilian software engineer working at the intersection of financial infrastructure, distributed systems, and security.

My work spans backend architecture, event-driven platforms, observability, and experiences used in high-trust environments.
