Modular Monoliths - The Goldilocks Architecture?
Monolithic apps are the worst! They grow and grow until they collapse under their own weight as a Big Ball of Mud.
Microservices are the here to save us! But wait, they're REALLY hard to get right and REALLY hard to manage at scale. And way too often they end up being the worst of all worlds, the dreaded DISTRIBUTED MONOLITH.
Enter, the Modular Monolith. Simple deployments, cheaper hosting, but easy to extend and capable of supporting multiple independent development teams. Not too simple, but not too complex. Maybe the Goldilocks solution your application has been yearning for.
