> So I just need to split my simple CRUD app into 12 microservices, each with their own APIs which call each others’ APIs but handle failure resiliently, put them into Docker containers, launch a fleet of 8 machines which are Docker hosts running CoreOS, “orchestrate” them using a small Kubernetes cluster running etcd, figure out the “open questions” of networking and storage, and then I continuously deliver multiple redundant copies of each microservice to my fleet. Is that it? exactly. I mean look, if you have a lifestyle business that's only going to support 5-10 people, it's totally a waste of time. if you have some hope of scaling this is the way to go. I get it, just use Heroku. It's easy and convenient. If you're planning on a billion dollar exit, this way is way better. > I need to decide if i believe my own hype? yeah. sorry.
