Meetup: A modular approach before micro-services

Real architecture tips and use cases experience, was the theme of the two talks at the last PHP meetup organized by Sebastian Feldmann at CHECK24.

My photos from the event

In the first session, we followed Sebastian’s journey and lessons learned while moving applications from monolith, to distributed monolith, to modular monolith, and eventually to microservices, if that last step is really necessary.

It was a very well-delivered talk with plenty of relatable examples that many of us have faced in our own projects. A really great experience speaking about "The Holy Grail of Software Architecture".

The second talk: Democratic Architecture, was presented by Stefan Priebsch, who shared insights on how responsibilities and competencies can be distributed within an architecture, whether modular or distributed, and how respecting these boundaries helps define the scope of each component, module, or app as a whole.

And of course, we wrapped things up with the famous little elephant raffle. Sadly, I didn’t win this time, but it’s always fun to take part. My turn will come sooner or later, haha.

This community event is always something special, since I get to reconnect with old friends. Big shoutout to Sergei Iurchenko, Maksim Cherkasov , and Steven Bustos. see you again in the next event!
