Expert Insights: What Most People Get Wrong

Based on 8 years of experience, here are the critical mistakes I see clients make—and how I fix them:

• Choosing microservices too early - Most Melbourne startups deploy a monolith first; I use domain-driven design to identify bounded contexts before splitting. Wrong way: jumping to Kubernetes after first feature. My way: start with NestJS modules and extract services only after 10k monthly active users.
• Ignoring database indexing until slowdowns hit - Common failure pattern shows query times jumping from 50ms to 4s after 50k records. I always run EXPLAIN ANALYZE on every new query and add composite indexes on foreign keys plus frequently filtered columns.
• Skipping contract testing between services - Leads to 30% of integration bugs in production. I implement Pact tests for all API endpoints so breaking changes are caught in CI before deployment.
• Actionable advice you can use now - Audit your current app by running `npx depcheck` and `npm audit --production` today to surface unused packages and known vulnerabilities before they become expensive refactors.
