By Vitor Calil Silva on 24/03/20 17:05

For you to quickly get an idea of where we’re heading, here is the TL;DR version about microservices, some of its main benefits and why it’s a big thing:

  • Rapidly iterate to find your next business model
  • Improve and empower developer engagement

With this in mind, let’s take a step back and discuss a bit about monolithic apps, the counterpart to microservices.

By Vitor Calil Silva on 11/10/19 15:55
