Software Architecture Fundamentals 2nd Edition, Chapter 11. Modular Monolith

Continuing our survey of architectures styles, we uncover a style that is surging in popularity over the last few years, the modular monolith. Inspired by the principles in Domain-driven Design, this style tries to achieve many of the benefits of microservices but inside the convenience of a monolithic architecture. Join us as we talk about the properties of this style, when it's a better alternative to others (including microservices), and more about this popular style.
