Modern databases are evolving from monolithic systems to modular architectures . The GBase database is a great example of this design philosophy. Instead of embedding every feature into the core engine, GBase uses: 👉 Datablade extensions to dynamically add capabilities 🚀 1. The Problem with Monolithic Databases Traditional databases: Include all functions by default Become bloated over time Hard to maintain and optimize 🧠 2.
