Why we need Aspect Orient Programming (AOP)???
Before understanding why we need AOP we need to understand WHAT IS AOP ?
Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) is a programming paradigm that increases modularity by allowing the separation of cross-cutting concerns. Concerns such as logging, security, transaction management, etc., which tend to tangle the main/business logic of the program and make the code hard to understand, maintain, and reuse in future. Also, AOP can be clubbed with any other programming paradigm but we often use it in conjunction with object-oriented programming (OOP) to provide modular and maintainable solutions.
So, this above was a basic gist of What is AOP ?
Now let’s talk about why do we need it?
The main reasons why we need AOP are:
- Modularization of cross-cutting concerns: All the cross-cutting concerns are placed in a single module from where they can be triggered.
- Code maintainability: It is easy to maintain the codebase.
- Efficient: You need not write the same piece of code, again and again, leading to a more efficient development process.
- Reusability: A single block of code can be used at multiple places by leveraging the power of aspect-oriented programming.
- Less code to write: The amount of code that you need to write is significantly reduced.
“Embrace AOP to weave simplicity into complexity, streamlining your code and empowering your development journey with efficiency, maintainability, and reusability.”
