Microservices are everywhere - but are they always the right choice? Spoiler: most teams adopt them too early, and it costs them. In this video, you'll learn: ✅ How monolithic and microservices architectures differ ✅ Tradeoffs in development speed, deployment, scaling & team ownership ✅ When startups should stay monolithic (and when to break things apart) ✅ How operational complexity grows with microservices A critical architectural decision every software team faces - and a staple of senior engineering interviews. ▶ Previous video: https://youtu.be/UDTxRuzPOdA ▶ Next video: https://youtu.be/8x6aOgvjd88 📂 Full playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL55symSEWBbP_3fG_r6AU1XAG9UzokIdE ⏱ Chapters: 0:00 - Monolithic vs Microservices 1:08 - Monolithic Architecture 1:40 - Monolithic Architecture Advantages 2:03 - Microservices Architecture 2:57 - Monolithic Architecture and Microservices Architecture Comparison & Tradeoffs 3:41 - Vertical Scaling vs Horizontal Scaling 4:24 - Single Point of Failure in Monolithic Architecture 5:05 - When to use Monolithic Architecture vs Microservices Architecture? 6:02 - Evolve from Monolithic Architecture to Microservices Architecture 6:22 - Choice Between Monolithic Architecture vs Microservices Architecture 🔔 Subscribe for weekly system design, backend, and software engineering content — and hit the bell so you never miss a video. #MonolithVsMicroservices #MicroservicesArchitecture #SoftwareArchitecture #SystemDesign #BackendEngineering #LearnWithManoj
