One of my biggest hurdles was trying to figure out if microservices were right for us (a small distributed team) and then communicating/selling the benefit of them to my team and bosses.
This involved creating a mutually agreed upon definition of what we actually meant by "microservices". I literally repurposed paragraphs out of Sam Newman's book to do this.
As a small team, I also didn't have examples to support my argument that microservices would benefit us.
- skewart 9y agoWhat did you end up deciding? And what were you thinking the benefit might be? My sense is that for a small team a microservices architecture might be more trouble than it's worth, but I can definitely see how some kinds of applications - or even kinds of teams - it could be a good fit.
