like all things, one size doesn't fit all. not everything is a nail regardless of how shiny the hammer is. Having said that when the situation is right, microservices are great. some of us have been through this all before with soa or in my case with com. Each individual component is simpler but the documentation between the components becomes absolutely vital. we ended up keeping a copies of the interfaces in a central location (with documentation of all changes per version) so that everyone would know how to talk to all the other systems. and don't think that the interfaces won't change. they will. and often across many systems/components. like a ripple.
