Design Microservices Architecture with Patterns and Principles - Evaluate Monolithic Architecture - E-Commerce Applicati

The video tutorial discusses the monolithic architecture for e-commerce applications. It outlines the course flow, starting with identifying problems, learning new patterns, and designing the architecture. The tutorial evaluates the current monolithic design, highlighting its benefits such as ease of development, debugging, testing, and deployment, making it suitable for small applications. However, it also addresses the drawbacks, including tight coupling, difficulty in code separation, and violation of the separation of concerns principle, leading to interlocking dependencies.
