Tech moved in cycles. We come back to the same half-baked ideas every so on, imagine we just discovered the idea and then build more and more technologies on top to try to fix the foundational problems with the concept until something else shiny comes along. A lot of tech work is “there was an old lady who swallowed a fly”.
I always keep saying " You cannot plan your way out of a system built on broken fundamentals." Microservices has it's use case, but not every web app needs to be one. Too many buzzwords floating around in tech, that promise things that cannot be delivered.
