That’s just _duplicating_ the nodes horizontally which wasnt what I meant.

That’s obviously possible snd common.

What I meant was actually butchering the monolith into separate pieces and deploying it, which is - by the definition of monolith - impossible.

What would be the point of actually butchering the monolith?

There is no limit or cost to deploying 10000 lines over 1000 lines.

  • I meant in the sense of ”machine A only manages thing authentication” and ”machine B only manages orders”.

    If that’s possible (regardless of what was deployed to the two machines) then the app just isn’t a true monolith.
