Tech blogs praise microservices, yet many successful products still run on monoliths. For SMEs, architecture choices impact speed, cost, and hiring needs.
We'll compare both models and give a checklist to decide which suits your stage.
Choose the architecture that accelerates delivery today and tomorrow.
Monolith: Simplicity First
Single codebase, single deploy means less operational overhead—perfect for early MVPs.
Microservices: Scale & Flexibility
Teams own services end‑to‑end, releasing independently—but at the cost of distributed complexity.
Decision Factors
- Team size and skillset
- Release cadence
- Future integration needs
Architecture should serve the business, not trends. The right choice depends on your team's maturity and growth trajectory.
