When to add additional services

Only justified if:

Long-running jobs exceed typical request timeouts
WebSocket/persistent connections required at scale
Separate scaling requirements for specific workloads
Compliance requires service isolation
Background job processing (consider Bull/BullMQ first)

Default: keep API in single NestJS application with modules.
