Monolithic vs Microservices: Choosing the Right Architecture | Backend Engineering 101

In this video, we explore the key differences between Monolithic and Microservices architectures, two fundamental approaches in backend development. Whether you're new to software engineering or looking to make informed architectural decisions, this video will break down these concepts in a simple and engaging way! 🚀 Here’s what you'll learn: ✅ What is a Monolithic Architecture? Think of it as a “single giant application” where all components are tightly coupled. ✅ What is a Microservices Architecture? A modular approach where different services communicate independently. ✅ Key differences in scalability, deployment, maintenance, and performance. ✅ Real-world analogy: Comparing Monolithic to a single large restaurant vs. Microservices as a food court with specialized stalls. 🍔🍕 ✅ Pros and Cons of both architectures – when to use each based on project size and business needs. ✅ How big tech companies like Netflix, Amazon, and Uber transitioned from Monolithic to Microservices. By the end of this video, you’ll have a clear understanding of Monolithic and Microservices architectures, their trade-offs, and how to choose the right approach for your backend systems. 💻 Who is this video for? Perfect for college students, freshers, and anyone new to backend development who wants to learn how modern software systems are designed. 📚 Follow us for more fun, knowledge, and resources: 💌 Telegram - https://telegram.me/PrepTrain 📷 Instagram -   / saheb_preptrain   ❤️ YouTube -    / @saheb_preptrain   🧑‍💼 LinkedIn -   / kumar-saheb   💬 X - https://x.com/Saheb_PrepTrain Hashtags: #BackendEngineering #MonolithicVsMicroservices #SoftwareArchitecture #Programming #SoftwareDevelopment #BackendDevelopment #MicroservicesExplained #TechForFreshers #Scalability #TechArchitecture 📢 Don’t forget to subscribe!
