Here! here! I'm within spitting distance of the end of a project of collapsing a service-oriented system back into a Majestic Monolith. Every step of the way has reduced the lines of code, fixed bugs, saved money, saved time. It's been such a joy that I'm considering doing only this as a side hustle. "Saving" companies who were sold an over-complicated dream. |

This has crossed my mind a lot lately. I think we are looking directly at one of the largest emerging markets in technology. What do we think the TAM is going to be for undoing webscale monstrosities by 2025? Not every business will fail due to their poor technology choices and will be able to pay some serious consulting fees...
I've practically got a system for doing this now. It mostly starts with domain modeling in excel and all the business stakeholders being in the loop at the same time until everyone agrees. I find if you get this part right it doesn't really matter if you use C# vs python, or AWS vs on-prem to build the actual product. Hard to get opinionated and locked in when your deploy to prod involves a 100 meg zip file and 3 lines of powershell ran against a single box.
