Re:Use one big server by danpalmer on Tuesday August 02, 2022 @02:22PM (#32322429)
You can still do a ton of joining.

I’d start with a monolith, that’s a single app, single database, single point of ownership of the data model, and a ton of joins.

Then as services are added after the monolith they can still use the main database for ease of infra development, simpler backups and replication, etc. but those wouldn’t be able to be joined because they’re cross-service.
