Microservices vs Monolith: What We Recommend and When
Microservices aren’t a badge of honor. Monoliths aren’t outdated by default. Here’s how DeltaCode decides for real projects.

Start simple when you can
For many MVPs and focused products—like a trades e-commerce platform—a well-structured monolith (Angular + Spring Boot + MySQL) is faster, cheaper, and easier to operate.
Go distributed when scale demands it
Multi-tenant SaaS, high throughput, independent team ownership, or strict domain boundaries (for example enterprise accounting platforms) benefit from microservices, hexagonal design, and event-driven flows.
The trap
Distributed systems without DevOps maturity become distributed monoliths: harder to debug, slower to ship. We only split services when the operational cost is justified.
