What about flow-based programming (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow-based_programming https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow-based_programming)? How would you argue (or not argue) that differs from microservices? When would you advocate for a monolith first vs building one tool that does one thing and does it well and then pipes its output into another tool?
- marcosdumay 9y agoIt is a design technique that can be used for designing microservices based applications or any other kind of application that is distributed. So, it's something completely different and the difference you asked makes no sense. There is a link on that page for the more generic dataflow based programing. I'd advise anybody to follow it and simply ignore its specializations until they master the generic one. I'd also say that any program should be designed from multiple points of view, so do not stop at dataflow.
