# E4 | deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro | run 1

## Prompt

Explain this to a non-technical manager in 2 sentences:

We need to refactor the monolith into microservices to reduce deployment coupling and improve our mean time to recovery.

## Response

We plan to break our large, tightly integrated software into smaller, self-contained pieces that can each be updated and run on their own. This lets us fix or improve one piece without touching the others, so we can release changes faster and get back up and running much more quickly when something goes wrong.
