Abstract

Recently the trend of companies switching from microservice back to monolith has increased, leading to intense debate in the industry. We conduct a multivocal literature review, to investigate reasons for the phenomenon and key aspects to pay attention to during the switching back and analyze the opinions of other practitioners. The results pave the way for further research and provide guidance for industrial companies switching from microservice back to monolith.
