Using the term microservices here is confusing. The main point of microservices as an architectural pattern is decoupling release cadence between teams in very large organizations.
The scaling/redundancy part is not unique to microservices.
What this framework seem to be doing is allowing a team to deploy a system developed as a single binary monolith as a distributed system.
The organizational use case is orthogonal to what microservices were all about.
Granted, microservices have been cargoculted like crazy, so this distinction is probably lost on a lot of engs. But for those of us that remember the original meaning, mentioning microservices in the description of this framework, is odd.
