Micro services vs Monoliths: Choosing the correct level of decomposition with moduliths

[sh-aps]

Over the past decade, microservices have garnered significant interest, leading many companies to transition from traditional monolithic architectures to microservices. However, this shift has also highlighted some challenges, particularly related to the degree of service decomposition.Choosing the right level of decomposition is crucial: too coarse, and you might as well stick with a monolithic architecture; too fine, and you risk creating a distributed monolith with unmanageable services.In this talk, the speaker will explore the risks associated with both extremes and offer guidelines to help determine the appropriate level of decomposition for your services. Ultimately, the choice between monolithic and microservice architectures may lead to a balanced approach known as majestic modular monoliths.
