So do you believe that microservices are no harder than monoliths for small-scale projects, it's just a matter of expertise?

- photonthug 2y agoPretty much, yeah. Look at it this way. If microservice madness needs N monitors, well, monolith still needs at least 1 right? With the relevant expertise, making N monitors isn’t harder than making 1. Programmers shouldn’t get scared about generalizing existing instructions and adding a loop, and infracode is just another kind of code or you’re doing it wrong. Rejecting microservices because of this kind of “complexity” is usually just FUD that is screening someone’s preference for not working, learning, or hiring. Which desires are ok I guess, but it’s annoying if it’s presented as a discussion around architecture, best practices, etc.
