> There is a lot of talk about monoliths vs microservices lately.
Actually it's been going on for years, and it's always the same argument. People think they're thought leaders for saying "Start with monoliths and only move to microservices if you absolutely need to!"
It's a pretty obvious conclusion to anyone who has worked in both environments, or have had to migrate from one to the other, so it's not particularly insightful. And yet here were are, 5+ years later saying the same thing over and over again.

It should be obvious, but apparently it's not. So many architecture astronauts drinking the kool-aid and making a mess. Premature microservices can easily kill a product.
