In recent years, there has been a very mixed and often polarized conversation around microservices as an architectural style. Microservices were hailed as the solution for modern applications but are criticized for their complexity and operational bottlenecks. This session will:

- Reaffirm the core benefits of microservices, including scalability, fault tolerance, and independent deployments.

- Address common critiques from various experts and propose practical solutions to mitigate these issues.

- Showcase successful microservice implementations and discuss lessons learned from successes and challenges encountered in real-world projects led by the presenter.

- Compare microservices with other architectural styles, such as monoliths, n-tier architecture, and modular monoliths.

Come and explore why microservices still matter and how they can be effectively adopted in your organization if that makes sense.
