each service knows the next service in the pipeline and choreography is used for control.
Umm . . knows how? Control by what? Sounds like a reference to another infrastructure tool for choreography.
Plus, this strongly suggest very close coordination among the developers of the MS that make up an app. On the one hand, that's not surprising in that MSA seems not to be aimed at re-use of a MS by multiple application or across enterprises. On the other hand, it seems to undercut one of the "principles" we ran across earlier, i.e., that MS lets each development team operate very independently. The statement above seems to imply a significant body of shared knowledge of the overall application and agreement on constraints imposed by the application's overall flow.
