I thought Rails had taught us that extremely opinionated infrastructures are doomed to at best be influential, but not widely used.
Sometimes actors have to be stateful. Sometimes they should be the interface to large, complex computations that take 20 minutes to run.
The market is choke full of techs that solve very narrow cloud problems. What we need is something that isn't so terribly narrow. Microservices is very, very narrow. Even people working for Fred George admit to that.
- karmajunkie 13y agoI'm having a hard time parsing this—Rails is something I would consider to be both highly opinionated and widely used, but its unclear where your statement falls. I'm not crazy about some (most?) of the opinions, but that's a matter of some debate. > Microservices is very, very narrow. Even people working for Fred George admit to that. Its hard to make this statement without first agreeing to a definition of microservices. I'm not convinced there's wide agreement to such a definition yet.
