The Modular Monolith Architecture involves decoupled modules deployed as a single unit, connected to a single database, allowing independent teams to work side by side. This architecture is ideal for many projects today and serves as a necessary transition phase for migrating legacy codebases to microservices. Drawing from the experience of numerous successful real-world projects, this training will provide you with the tools and techniques needed to effectively adopt this architectural style, while also covering its core patterns and potential pitfalls, including module encapsulation, integration strategies, data decoupling, transaction boundaries, event-based integration, and more.
Key questions addressed in this training include strategies for migrating from a legacy monolith, whether a "Module" should be considered a build unit, how to determine the appropriate module size and scope, managing the release cycle in a Modulith, and deciding between shared or separate transactions
