Description

**Context**
Let's discuss on how Knot.x impacts application architecture choice. Being more specific, which architecture approach does Knot.x promote: `Monolithic` vs `Microservice`.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
A solid comparison of two architecture approaches when using Knot.x as part of the application. Differences between using Knot.x in monolithic vs microservice architectures with simple examples. Also, basic recommendation when use one or another approach and finally, what are advantages of using Knot.x in any of them.

**Additional context**
If Knot.x enables it, describe (in form of blog post or documentation) how to switch one architecture to another (preferably monolithic to microservice, which will be the most common). How Knot.x supports such transitions, what are prerequisites, when to do that.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing Knot.x's existing architecture guidance and examples, then compare monolithic and microservice use cases. Done means publishing a clear comparison with examples, recommendations, benefits, and a documented path for moving from monolithic to microservice architecture.
