Subject: RE: [soa-rm] Fwd: The Hidden Dividends of Microservices - ACM Queue
Thanks, Martin … I thought the article was pretty good … the author can (IMHO) be considered an authoritative source in this wrt how the hyperscale cloud service providers are
creating the de facto standard model for microservice architecture. The article assumes that readers already understand that
a microservice is a packaging construct for a substantive and separable chunk of business functionality exposed via an API-based service interface and corresponding SLA. Supporting observations from
http://thenewstack.io/succeed-failure-microservices/ “Microservices architecture is
the biggest misnomer since global warming,” Reinhardt said. “‘Global warming’ rolls off the tongue so much better than ‘climate change.’ The drawback is that every time you have a cold winter’s day, people say global warming doesn’t exist, whereas climate
change just says that the frequency of weather events is more extreme. It’s the same with microservices:
people by instinct immediately focus on the micro part. But microservices architecture is an architectural approach that takes into consideration
the way we work and the way we organize.” - - - - - One tangential take-away from the ACM article that was a light-bulb moment for me was: “The effectiveness of a set of tests can be measured less by their rate of problem detection and more by the rate of change that they enable.” Avanti, BobN From: soa-rm@lists.oasis-open.org [mailto:soa-rm@lists.oasis-open.org]
On Behalf Of BFC.McLean I don't find this very convincing but it's short. <g>
