Well yes. That's exactly what we're doing. We're breaking down complex code into simple code with complex interactions. Moving the complexity into a few universal platforms that everyone uses, largely in the hope that people smarter than us do that work on the complexity and we can focus on just the little simple bits. Of course, there's lots that is difficult whilst we collectively learn about what has previously been locked up in organisations like Twitter, Google, etc. How to do a transaction distributed over many microservices? Do RDBMSs still make sense with microservices? (The querying changes from SELECT everything you need, to many SELECT just this bit and so centralised databases see a dramatic increase in simple queries... better suited to key:value stores.) But yes, exactly what you say... we are.
