In today's fast-paced tech landscape, agility isn't just a buzzword—it's a necessity. Yet, many organizations find themselves held back by monolithic architectures: large, single-tiered software applications where all components are interconnected and interdependent. While monoliths can be straightforward to develop initially, they often become cumbersome as they scale, making updates risky, slowing down deployment cycles, and stifling innovation.

Breaking down these monoliths into modular, manageable services is more than a technical challenge; it's a transformative journey. It involves rethinking how teams collaborate, how services communicate, and how data flows through your system. The rewards are significant: increased flexibility, improved scalability, and the ability to adopt new technologies more rapidly. But the path is fraught with complexities. How do you decouple tightly-knit components without bringing down the entire system? What strategies can help mitigate risks during the transition? How do you ensure data integrity and system reliability throughout the process?

Join us for an enlightening evening at **"Breaking Down Monoliths"**, a developer meetup hosted by [Pipedrive](https://www.pipedrive.com/) in Prague. This event is your gateway to understanding the intricacies of dismantling monolithic architectures and transitioning to more flexible, scalable systems.

**Talks:**

1️⃣ **Breaking monolith: From legacy to manageable services**

**[Martin Seidel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-seidel-5bb132b2)**, Senior Software Engineer at [Pipedrive](https://www.pipedrive.com/)

**[Alexandr Kara](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandr-kara-5a4b5616),** Senior Staff Software Engineer at [Outreach](https://www.outreach.io/)
*At Outreach, we had an ambitious project to decompose our Ruby on Rails monolith in the "Everything all at once" with service and data decomposition happening at the same time. Then we had to go back to the drawing board in order to succeed. A look from the Search team side.*

3️⃣ **Transformation of the legacy of Czech Television into modern architecture (pains and lessons learned)**

**[Zdík Kudrle](https://www.linkedin.com/in/zdik-kudrle-433b09) & [Michal Hříbek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michal-hribek-69650a1b8),** Software Architects at [Czech Television](https://www.ceskatelevize.cz/)
