If you have microservices that truly need to be separate services and have very little usage, you probably should use things like serverless computing. It scales down to 0 really well.

However, if you have a microservice with very little usage, turning that service into a library is probably a good idea.

Yes. I think that the former case is the situation we’re in. Lambdas are annoying (the whole AWS is annoying!) but, as you say, scales to 0 very well.
