This isn’t a new problem to microservices though, although maybe it’s amplified. Reporting was challenging before microservices became popular too with data from different sources. Different products, offline data sources etc that all had to be put together. The whole ETL, data warehousing stuff. In the end everything involves tradeoffs. If you need to partition your data to scale, or for some other reason need to break up the data, then reporting potentially becomes a secondary concern. In this case maybe delayed reporting or a more complex reporting workflow is worth the trade off.
