#021: What went wrong with Microservices
๐ ABOUT THE EPISODE
In the 21th episode Grzegorz Godlewski and Artur Wolny share their negative experiences with implementing Microservices. Three examples of misuse of that useful pattern shows us that even the greatest idea can lead us down the blind alley, when we are narrow-minded about it.
Listen and take conclusions from those lessons that we learned!
๐ TOPICS COVERED
๐ Impact of blindly following recommendations: costly premature optimisations.
๐ Thing that might go wrong when you're focused too much on domain assignment of feature and too less on the app maintainability.
๐ How microservice hype-trains and poor organisational decisions lead to project failure.
โ TIMELINE
00:00:00 - Intro
00:02:08 - Story #1: Blindly following recommendations.
00:08:22 - Story #2: Too much domain, too little maintainability.
00:14:20 - Story #3: Microservice hype-train.
00:19:15 - Microservices or monolith? Benefits & drawbacks.

00:00 - Intro
01:14 - How to identify candidates for background jobs
08:28 - Employ the transactional outbox pattern
