I think this article is kind of misleading.
You use messaging for asynchronous communication and REST for synchronous communication. The article makes me believe that using REST for synchronous communication is a kind of deprecated alternative in front of message passing.
- stolsvik 4y agoNot sure when you saw the HN post, but the original title was "Why messaging is much better than REST for inter-microservice communications" - @dang / HN changed it. The article specifically points out that this is for inter-service communication. However, you can also use the same system for synchronous communication out the your end user clients, then using the MatsFuturizer: https://mats3.io/docs/sync-async-bridge/ https://mats3.io/docs/sync-async-bridge/
