Comment on Microservices – Please, Don’t (2016)parent

Comments

I think this is a blanket statement on my part, so to counter it; networked databases are definitely important. Some micro services maybe necessary for things outside of your control (HIPAA, Finance audits) and geo-proximity processing needs. And sometimes good ol micro services became popular because it was easy business in a giant org chart (Amazon, every team has an API).

Real world is messy.

I’m not anti micro services. I’m anti micro services as a code organization strategy.

There are very real reasons to need process isolation in larger systems. Code modularity is not one of them.
