This isn't just about microservices. There's lots of stuff here that applies to trying to transform an existing monolith into a better monolith too.

I'm a simple man - I see a talk by Michael Nygard and I watch knowing it is going to be good

[@edgeeffect]

I'm sure I've heard some other speakers drop his name a few times... so here I am... let's see if we're going to be "Nygard buddies".

2:04 what’s funny is the idea that distributed micro-services can be thought of as independent units that have no coupling to the entire system. A distributed micro-services application is a single application and is MORE monolithic than so-called monolithic apps. All services are actually needed for proper operation. We’re putting aside the case that monolithic apps are also distributed across multiple systems working together.

I currently work on a big ball of mud... and we have a cat... so thanks so much for the hairball analogy... I'm so glad you brought that up. ;)

"we can do it better now than 10 years before".... no :)

[@Tony-dp1rl]

Kinda long of a talk on basic and established knowledge. Could have been 20 minutes.

[@WiseGuyFTW]

exactly what I thought too.
