Most Teams Pick a Project Structure Once. By Year 2, They're Rewriting Everything.

42% of engineering teams went BACK to monolith after trying microservices. CNCF published the data. Shopify runs 30TB/min on the structure most teams skip.

I break down all 5 patterns — Feature-Based, Atomic Design, DDD, Modular Monolith, and Hexagonal — with the honest verdict on each. No hype, no blog post wisdom. Just what actually survives production.

00:00 Why most teams get this wrong
00:22 Feature-Based — the default that breaks first
00:56 Atomic Design — built for components, not apps
01:12 Domain-Driven Design — it's not a folder rename
01:53 Modular Monolith — what Shopify runs at 30TB/min
02:49 Hexagonal (Ports & Adapters) — testable at every layer
03:59 Pattern → Architecture map
04:43 Team size decides structure (the chart)
05:18 The one rule that outlasts all patterns
