The Patterns That Actually Matter: What Building Microservices at Scale Taught Me About Distributed Systems
🎓 AUTHORITY NOTE This content reflects 20+ years of hands-on enterprise software engineering and architecture experience. Recommendations are production-tested and enterprise-validated. Executive Summary The transition from monolithic architectures to microservices is often painted as a silver bullet for scalability. However, without the right distributed system patterns, it often results in a “distributed monolith”—a system that […]

The debate between monolithic and microservices architectures has evolved significantly over the past decade. What was once a straightforward “microservices are better” narrative has matured into a nuanced understanding that the right architecture depends entirely on context. After leading architecture decisions across dozens of enterprise systems, I’ve learned that the most expensive mistakes come not […]
