Micro services is a networked/cloud buzzword for The Unix Philosophy. Doing “one job and doing it well” implies, though, that you know what that job is, what the right tool is, and that you know how to do it well. Another word for “monolith” could easily be “prototype” for the sake of this article. If only we all had the time and money to do real software engineering, amirite? But, time and time again I’ve been proven out that “the hack becomes the solution” and that we’re not going to go back and “fix” working code.
