You are welcome. I believe you 100% made the right call. And yeah, the cost of devops is massive: you have to automate everything!
If you have a monolith or two you can easily do one off tasks manually and forget about them forever, with microservices it's all about automation.
- akulbe 9y agoIsn't there a sense in which automation, for the sake of creating something more predictable/repeatable/maintainable, is a good thing though?
- jtmarmon 9y agopredictable repeatable and maintainable are all great and important things. But micro services makes everything you do less predictable repeatable and maintainable. You must automate many more things with micro services to achieve the same level of predictable repeatable and maintainable as you have with a monolith. There are many possible benefits of microservices, few of which outweigh the massive costs for many (dare I say most) startups.
