Behind every robust application lies a well-thought-out architecture. Understanding how software is structured isn’t just for architects — it’s essential for anyone building or working with modern systems. Today, we’ve shared a visual breakdown of three foundational architecture styles: Monolith, Modular Monolith, and Microservices. Each brings a different approach to scalability, maintainability, and team collaboration. This post isn’t about which is better — it’s about knowing the strengths and trade-offs of each, so you can make informed decisions when it matters most. Have you worked with any of these architectures? What was your biggest learning or challenge? Let’s discuss in the comments.
