Of Microservices and Monoliths, and Everything In Between with Glenn Renfro

Can't attend in person?

BUT DON'T RSVP!

We'll start the streaming presentation at 7 PM.

We'll have pizza at 6:30 for those attending in-person!

Deciding between microservices, monoliths, or a hybrid architecture? We’ll explore the characteristics of each and how different architectural styles support various technical, organizational, and operational goals. Most organizations don’t choose just one path—architectures evolve, and combinations often coexist. The Spring portfolio offers powerful support across this spectrum. We’ll go through an example of the evolution of an application, showing how the Spring portfolio supports structure within a modular monolith and enables a smooth transition to microservices. Whether you’re scaling a small team or managing a complex system, this session will equip you to make thoughtful, needs-driven architectural decisions.
