Why Modular Monolith is a great starting architecture for a Serverless application?

In this talk we delve into modularity in serverless environments and compare monolithic, microservices, and serverless modular monolith architectures. Then we will further discuss the serverless modular monolith as an effective starting point due to its flexible deployment, scalability, and cost efficiency, paving the way for potential evolution into microservices if needed. Through practical examples and recent experiments, the talk emphasises PostNL’s successful adoption of this approach to enhance developer experience and manage complexity in logistics technology solutions.
