Hum are 380$ per year, which is a lot. My blog based on Wordpress cost me less than 118$/year with backup and domain cost (VAT Included). It seems more than a 3x cost per year, which seems a lot even considering the inflation in the ne

Totally agree. Also microservices shines IF you need different release schedule for two services. If they are managed in the same project/team, the effort you pay is high, the advantage could not pay your bill, so be careful in such sc
