But why? Microservices do have some good advantages in some scenarios
but they have a lot more disadvantages for most scenarios (if you're not a faang scale company, you probably don't need them)
The problem is that they become a buzz word for at scale companies that need them because they have huge complex architects, but then non at scale companies blindly follow the hype when they were created out of necessity for giant tech stacks that are a totally different use case.
