- pas 7y agoBreaking up the monolith is hard. Yes YAGNI is terrible, over-engineering makes everything brittle and hard to test and so on, but at the same time I burnt myself with spaghetti obelisks more than with the too many docker containers way. That said, using a common persistence store initially makes sense, but trying to compartmentalize the jobqueue/batch-processing stuff never hurts.
