\tangent apps->webapps => libs->microservices? They have the same non-technical business benefits, of charging per-usage, preventing piracy and decompilation/reverse-engineering etc. Although microservices are more trouble to manage and have more (serialization/transport) overhead than a local lib, if it's all hosted in the same cloud, it can be OK - and even a multicore advantage (if you can parallelize). I'd expect cloud providers and library/service vendors to be pushing microservices, even when the purely technical benefits don't quite add up...
