  • Micro services are a lot easier to scale out since they behave independently from each other, you can have different levels of replication and concurrency based on the traffic that each part of your system receives.

    Something that I think is pretty huge is that, done right, you end up with a bunch of smaller databases, meaning you can save a lot of money by having different levels of security and replication depending on how sensitive the data is.

    This last part also helps with data residency issues, which is becoming a pretty big deal for the EU.


  • I somewhat agree but I find that the added complexity is segmented, you shouldn’t need to care about anything but the contracts themselves when working within a micro service.

    That means less code to take into account, less spaghetti and an easier time with local testing.

    Micro services also have a ton of advantages at the infrastructure level.






  • It’s not, what we know as Halloween started in the year 400 as a Roman celebration based on the Celtic Samhain celebration.

    The Roman empire was known for combining their culture with whatever new cultures they found.

    If you want to be even more picky about the origina you could look forward to the year 800 or so and the Holy Roman Empire and that would make it both French and German in a way.

    Sooo… It’s Ireland, Roman, French or German depending on how you want to look at it, all of them centuries before the US and Canada became a thing.

    This took me 10 minutes to research…
