.NET Remoting, from 2002, was expressly designed to allow objects to be created either locally or on a different machine altogether. I’m sure Java also had something very similar. Monolith frameworks we’re always designed to be distributed. The reason distributed code was not popular was because the hardware at the time did not justify it. Further, treating hardware as cattle and not pets was not easy or possible because of the lack of a variety of technologies such as better devops tools, better and faster compilers, containerization, etc.
