What is Arquitectura Hexagonal?

Hexagonal Architecture, also known as Ports and Adapters architecture, is a software design pattern that aims to create loosely coupled application components. It achieves this by separating the core logic of an application from the infrastructure details it depends on, such as databases, user interfaces, or external services. The core application logic is encapsulated within a 'hexagon,' and all interactions with the outside world occur through 'ports' (interfaces) and 'adapters' (implementations of those interfaces). This allows for easy swapping of infrastructure components without affecting the core application logic and makes the application more testable and maintainable. It is commonly used in systems where flexibility, testability, and adaptability are crucial.
