I thought it could be useful to share a real-life example of a company decomposing a monolith to illustrate the point. That company is Netflix. By applying domain-driven design, SRP, and continuous refactoring, Netflix decomposed its monolith into cohesive and loosely coupled microservices. This allowed them to scale their platform, accelerate development, and deliver a seamless streaming experience.
If anyone is interested in checking out the 10-part ebook that guides you through the process of re-architecting both your tech stack and organizational structure when transitioning from a monolithic to a microservices & details of the above mentioned example - you can get access to it here https://solutions.cerbos.dev/monolith-to-microservices-migration-ebook
This article is a really impressive work on the topic of decomposition patterns. I learned a lot of interesting things. Looking forward to the next articles about microservices.
I found the Decomposition Patterns section of this article really insightful, especially the discussion on the advantages and drawbacks of using the Gateway pattern. I'm curious - are there any other patterns that can be used in conjunction with Gateway to mitigate its drawbacks and improve its overall effectiveness in microservice architecture?

Hey Zufar. Thanks for sharing, great piece!
I wanted to share insight from my end, in case it would be relevant to the readers here.
I recently helped work on an ebook about monolith to microservices migration, and in the first chapter we cover this exact topic. Here it is: https://www.cerbos.dev/blog/determining-service-boundaries-and-decomposing-monolith
