Monoliths or Microservices?
Friday - Apr 5 8:45 AM CDT - MARYVILLE III
It almost feels like we keep hearing this chant “Monoliths are bad, Microservices are awesome.” When architects, technical leads, and developers reject architecture due to bias or favor due to infatuation organizations lose. The most important question is what are the business needs and which architecture is the most suitable for that.
In this presentation we will compare the contrast the differences between monoliths and microservices and the consequences of choosing one over the other. The goal is for us to develop an objective knowledge so we can choose wisely in order to serve our businesses.
