> microservices isn't "architecture".

Yes the 'no-architecture architecture'. It's very Zen. /s

> how it all hangs together

In case you are interested in rescuing :) young but promising talent in the field, next time you find yourself involved in a discussion about microservices "architecture", point out the realization of a single-node application per this approach, where every function is a process, and the call stack requires IPC, and the 'linker' is considered obsolete and outdated technology.



I once worked on an application that - no joke - comprised 5000 VMs each of which was running one "service" in a dedicated JBoss. It was laughably bad.
