Monoliths often get a bad reputation, but with the right practices, they can remain maintainable and scalable. 🏗️

Here’s what worked for me:

🔄 Modular Approach: Keep coupling between modular code sections to a minimum.
📦 Clear Boundaries: Ensure each part of the code base is designated for a specific purpose.
⚙️ Automation: Continuous deployment is essential (CI is a bonus!), along with unit and feature tests.
📊 Monitoring: Use tools like New Relic, analyze package logs, and proactively refactor anything that shows signs of wear.
🛠️ Scalability Enhancements: Leverage patterns like message brokers (queue management), optimize database queries (expose only what’s necessary via APIs), and implement caching where it’s genuinely required.

Monoliths aren’t inherently bad; mismanagement is. With discipline and the right mindset, they can serve as a strong foundation for years to come.
