If your website crashes because a single person ran a query, your system is too monolithic. You can have thousands of little microservices running all over the place, but a single query causing a fault proves that a vital system is running without redundancy or load sharing and that other systems cannot handle the situation. You have too many aspects of your service all tied together within a single system. It is too monolithic.

I think "monolithic" and "fragile" are orthogonal concepts.
