'Microservices' are a terrible idea.

  Microservices are a terrible idea when they are "micro". 1-team-1-service is good.

    Agreed re: terminology. The term micro makes everyone attempt to make too many tiny services. Gotta be micro!

  I will agree to a point. "Micro" isn't the way we should go, more of a "Macro" approach. Instead of a small service that handles one function, give me a medium service that handles a specific domain, e.g. OAuth, data retention, marketing concerns, etc. And with that said, lumping everything into a single monolith is a bad idea.
