- JamesBarney 6y agoIs modularity a huge benefit when most languages allow you to compose applications into modules which have keywords to enforce encapsulation? And scalability seems like an incremental benefit at best. If you're cpu bound you can load balance without microservices. And if you're database bound (and have already cached, optimized, and scaled up your db) you can scale up your db to multiple instances. Even Stackoverflow runs their entire infrastructure on just 4 db machines.
