  • Micro services are a lot easier to scale out since they behave independently from each other, you can have different levels of replication and concurrency based on the traffic that each part of your system receives.

    Something that I think is pretty huge is that, done right, you end up with a bunch of smaller databases, meaning you can save a lot of money by having different levels of security and replication depending on how sensitive the data is.

    This last part also helps with data residency issues, which is becoming a pretty big deal for the EU.


  • I somewhat agree but I find that the added complexity is segmented, you shouldn’t need to care about anything but the contracts themselves when working within a micro service.

    That means less code to take into account, less spaghetti and an easier time with local testing.

    Micro services also have a ton of advantages at the infrastructure level.







  • I love listening to the original intro 3 times in the first episode.

    I would have never known that the 4 nations lived in harmony until the fire nation attacked, or that the Avatar, master of all 4 elements was the only one who could stop them.

    I also love learning that Aang wants to eat banana cakes and goof off with his friends instead of being the Avatar by him outright saying it instead of us meeting ANY of these friends in the first place.
