Yes... Microservices REALLY ARE Technical Debt

Do you love microservices or hate them? There seems little middle ground in this debate. In a recent interview on the NeetCodeIO YouTube channel Matt Ranney of Doordash described microservices as Technical Debt. Microservices are often badly misunderstood, and microservice architecture, often badly misused. This idea of microservices is both wrong and right, but probably more right than wrong, so how do we do a better job of making the best of microservices? In this episode Dave Farley, author of "Continuous Delivery" and "Modern Software Engineering" discusses the value of microservices when properly applied, and their costs when not. - BLACK FRIDAY: The Biggest Sale of The Year Is Now Live! ❗ CD-BlackFriday-50 ❗ The first 100 buyers with this code get a massive 50% OFF ALL COURSES (including bundles) but even if you miss this, you can still get a HUGE 25% OFF ALL WEEK with this coupon: CD-BlackFriday-25 Find your course HERE ➡️ https://courses.cd.training/collections - ⭐ PATREON: Join the Continuous Delivery community and access extra perks & content! ➡️ https://bit.ly/ContinuousDeliveryPatreon 🎥 Join Us On TikTok ➡️ https://www.tiktok.com/@modern.s.engineering - CHANNEL SPONSORS: Equal Experts is a product software development consultancy with a network of over 1,000 experienced technology consultants globally.
