Monolith

Monolithic Architecture

Definition

A monolith is an application where all components — UI, business logic, and data access — are tightly coupled and deployed as a single unit. Monoliths are simpler to develop and debug initially but become harder to scale and maintain as teams and codebases grow.

The Strangler Fig pattern is a common approach for incrementally migrating monoliths to microservices.
