Monoliths always pay their debts

You have just created a new small and disruptive startup or you are an enterprise building a new product. To speed up the initial development you have built a monolith but few months after your product has become widely adopted. Now you have a problem. Your server is not ready to handle all that load and you need to solve the scalability issue quickly. Too bad that you have developed your app as a single monolith since the beginning, now split it to microservices would be very hard because of cross-dependencies and mixed logic. Enter Fastify, a new web framework for Node.js. Fastify is focused on providing the best developer experience with the least overhead through a powerful plugin architecture. In this talk, we will build a new disruptive startup with Fastify, starting with a monolith and later migrate to a microservices architecture, by building a future-proof codebase.
