Yes, I had a discussion about a very senior (but not developer) why we he thought we must enforce microservices in our applications from a technical perspective. He thought it was incredibly important to be able to scale parts of it independently and it is a normal CRUD internal application with a couple of thousand users. Of course he looks at Netflix and Google as best practices but that discussion probably spent more money in salary than our server costs.
