Spotlight platform is a greenfield project. It comes with ambiguities and risks.
- Modular Monolith
- Microservice
| Factor | Modular Monolith | Microservice |
|---|---|---|
| Cost(time+money) | Low | High |
| Maintenance | Low | High |
| Coupling | High | Low |
| Scalability | Low | High |
| Extensibility | Low | High |
-
Modular Monolith if there is a cost constraint. Start with the monolith and later migrate to microservice + event driven after there is a product market fit and a system required to scale.
