- hangonhn 4y agoYeah that's a really good point. Our microservices are like 30? 1000+ is intractable but up to 50 or even a 100 it's doable. We rely pretty heavily on AWS Cloudformation to deploy. All our services have Cloudformation templates. I'm sure Terraform would work too or be even better. Since every service knows how to deploy itself, building a preview environment wasn't too difficult. It's just a matter of stitching them all together, which was made a lot easier with Cloudformation nesting of stacks.
