Summary

In this chapter, we saw the difference between monolithic and microservices architecture. Then we discussed what microservices architecture with monolithic core means and its benefits. Finally, we jumped into the Seneca framework for implementing microservices architecture with monolithic core and discussed how to create a basic login and registration functionality to demonstrate various features of the Seneca framework and how to use it.

In the next chapter, we will create a fully functional e-commerce website using Seneca and Express frameworks.
