🅰s always, there is room for both styles of programming. Some applications simply do not require this type of architecture. Testing a monolith is certainly easier than testing thousands of microservices. Debugging is also a lot easier. Dependency management is also hell of a lot easier. Yes microservices (or simply services) are very good at large scale applications but they are simply an overkill for any startup project. Why not concentrate your efforts on selling your product first vs building the perfect infrastructure that no one uses? When time comes to upgrade - well upgrade. Amazon is a good example of a large company making the move from monoliths to services and they executed well. You can also do the same thing when it is absolutely required. You know, refactoring!
