Practical advice for building modular monoliths

Monoliths often get a bad rap. However, when designed with care and strategy, a monolithic architecture can not only be efficient but also 'glorious.' This session aims to dismantle the myths surrounding monolithic applications and provide advice for building a robust, maintainable and scalable monolith.

We will look at various aspects of monolithic architecture, such as defining contexts, organizing the code, structuring your application for developer ergonomics, synchronous and asynchronous communication between contexts, minimizing boilerplate code, effective data separation, testing and implementing useful architectural patterns.

Through practical examples in code and advice you will get an overview of key principles for creating a high-quality modular monolithic application that is a joy to work with.

Are you a developer or an architect who want to see how you can build monoliths, learn why you absolutely should, and still enjoy your work? Then this session is for you.
