This approach facilitates faster deployment pipelines, better observability, and simplifies the evolution of the technology stack. However, it demands careful design to ensure loose coupling and stable APIs, and requires cultural changes in testing and deployment practices. Starting with a monolith may be advisable in new domains to identify stable APIs before transitioning to microservices. 39 2. 2 [](https://daily.dev/posts/architecting-monoliths-for-fast-sustainable-flow-ez4ix2zmi "Architecting monoliths for fast, sustainable flow") Article Microservices.io · 2y Architecting monoliths for fast, sustainable flow Fast, sustainable flow is the continuous delivery of valuable changes while keeping the technology stack current, requiring team-sized elements, loose coupling, testability, deployability, observability, and evolvability. While monolithic architectures can be simpler than microservices, they often struggle with evolvability and deployment pipeline bottlenecks, but careful design can overcome some limitations. The upcoming workshop covers architectural design, trade-offs, and strategies to enhance fast, sustainable flow. 24 [See all Microservices.io archives](/sources/microservicesio/best-of) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"CollectionPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/sources/microservicesio/best-of/2024/08#page","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/microservicesio/best-of/2024/08","name":"Best Microservices.io Posts — August 2024","description":"The most upvoted Microservices.io posts from August 2024, curated by the daily.dev community.","isPartOf":{"@type":"WebSite","url":"https://daily.dev"}},{"@type":"ItemList","@id":"https://daily.dev/sources/microservicesio/best-of/2024/08#items","numberOfItems":2,"itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/architecting-microservices-for-fast-sustainable-flow-lgvrdwote","name":"Architecting microservices for fast, sustainable flow"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/architecting-monoliths-for-fast-sustainable-flow-ez4ix2zmi","name":"Architecting monoliths for fast, sustainable flow"}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Sources","item":"https://daily.dev/sources"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Microservices.io","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/microservicesio"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"name":"Best of","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/microservicesio/best-of"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"name":"August 2024"}]}]} ```
