Chopping the Monolith - Using Function-as-a-Service for Pragmatic System Design

Explore a pragmatic approach to system design that balances the benefits of microservices with the stability of monolithic architectures in this conference talk from GeeCON 2023. Delve into the challenges companies face when implementing microservices and learn why many fail to fully capitalize on their advantages. Discover how Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) offers a middle ground between traditional Rule Engines and full microservice migration. Gain insights into designing systems that allow for flexible deployment frequencies, catering to both rapidly changing business capabilities and more stable components. Examine the potential of Serverless technology to achieve a pragmatic system design that enables deploying different parts of your application as often as needed, without the complexity of a full microservices architecture.
