Monolith Lambda (Lambdalith) for API management - is it a good idea?

The article discusses the Lambda Monolith architecture, also known as Lambdalith, and its application in creating APIs. The author begins by explaining what a Lambdalith is and how it impacts the way we build cloud applications. They emphasize that traditional microservices architecture can introduce significant complexities, which may sometimes be unnecessary. Instead, the Lambdalith architecture focuses on flexibility and simplicity, which in many cases accelerates the process of developing and deploying applications. Additionally, the article addresses the dilemmas that development teams face when choosing between microservices and Lambdalith architecture, highlighting that there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Finally, it encourages developers to consider the specific requirements of their projects and tailor their architecture to actual needs instead of following established patterns.
