Great overview! The guide offers a practical roadmap for transitioning from monolithic to microservices architecture, covering everything from planning and modular design to deployment and monitoring. The emphasis on incremental migration and intermediate steps, like modular monoliths, is particularly useful for managing complexity. The detailed steps on implementing service discovery, database segregation, and configuration management are spot-on for anyone tackling this type of migration. Thanks for this comprehensive guide to a challenging but highly rewarding architectural shift!
