From Monolith to Microservices

A single, tightly-coupled application handles everything. Every module lives in one deployable unit, making scaling and independent releases impossible.

Cursor scans the entire monolith, maps cross-module dependencies, and identifies optimal service boundaries for extraction.

Cursor extracts each module into an independent microservice with its own data store, API contracts, and AWS deployment target.

Cursor generates production-ready Terraform for ECS tasks, API Gateway routes, RDS instances, and all supporting infrastructure.
