History Behind Inefficient Monoliths
Understand the historical reasons behind inefficient monolithic software, including past hardware constraints and development practices. Learn how these legacy approaches contrast with today's need for scalable distributed systems and microservices, preparing you to develop software architectures suited for modern demands.
We'll cover the following...
Tracing the origin
Most of the software projects that are executed nowadays are inefficient. They are slow and complicated, produce defective monoliths, do not meet user’s expectations, and so on.
You might wonder: What is the reason behind these problems? Haven’t we already learned how to build software?
Yes, we have, but times have changed.
When I started writing code, hardware was expensive. Companies used to buy a server that had a “beefed-up” processor and memory capacity. Afterwards, ...
