Pull vs Push Architecture

24 May, 2026

Just suddenly found the different architecture when working on my undergraduate thesis.

Pull Architecture

• Pull Architecture request each time needs data.
• Pull Architecture enables client-controlled throttling. It's more predictable.

Push Architecture

• Push Architecture sends the data immediately when it's available.
• Push Architecture can make the bottleneck in the client side, where the client isn't fast enough to process the data.

Anyway, I also made my own notes about this topic in my Notion. Check it here : Pull vs Push Architecture if you want to read it.
