Monoliths vs. Distributed Architectures: Why and When
Have you ever created a single blob of an application where there were no parts to communicate between? Not in the past 50 years. So, then what does it mean to create a monolith vs. a distributed application? When should we choose one over the other. What are the consequences of choosing one over the other.
In this presentation, rather than thinking about these as good or bad, we will evaluate the reasons, benefits, and consequences of choosing different architectures and why you should evaluate these when creating architectures for your own applications.
