Reading these comments make me sad. It's like everyone has forgotten the cookie cutter server architecture pattern.

I really don't understand microservices for most businesses. They're great if you put the effort into it but most business don't have the scale required.

Big databases and big servers serve most businesses just fine. And past that NFS and other distributed filesystem approaches get you to the next phase by horizontally scaling your app servers without needing to decompose your business logic into microservices.

The best approach I've ever seen is a monorepo codebase with non-micro services built into it all running the same way across every app server with a big loadbalancer in front of it all.
