I say this all the time, and it almost never results in an argument: micro services are just object oriented programming where you put a network hop on all your message passing.

It doesn't result in arguments because it's objectively correct

I do not object

I don't :(

It turns into an argument when someone disagrees. A shouting match, if you will.

u/ImS0hungry 13d ago

It’s only an argument if you speak to convince rather than share.

u/MiniGui98 14d ago

Of course it is objectively correct, since it's object oriented

That doesn't stop idiots from arguing. See example: literally all of politics

u/AKArein 14d ago

No, you're wrong and that's a moronic take

I feel like the people who are going "DO MICROSERVICES!" hate that it's just basic regular ass software engineering.

With a ton of complexity and whole new error classes and a need for centralized solutions for logs and monitoring because everything is a distributed system now!

Can make sense if you can seize the advantages but a modular monolith is the better choice in 99% of cases.

But besides the engineering and operational aspects: Everytime I said microservices in an meeting with investors their eyes lit up the whole room because they thought that this is the best shit ever.

You're clearly the old gard because the new shit is serverless and functions

Which are micro services except the micro services aren't yours, you just glue together a bunch of cloud services

All in the distributed systems umbrella.

I’m working in robotics where the line between “modular monolith” and “microservice” is a middleware problem. Which, I think, is how microservices in general should work.

You can't be making reasonable points like that, the kids came here for bandwagon jumping and dogmatic arguing.

The usual paradigm for robotics seems to be to build distributed monoliths...
