This made me chuckle for a good 10 minutes!

At work we’re currently in the last layer of the iceberg with 35+ microservices, with ten different Kubernetes instances for different uses and a supported OnPrem version.

It is bit of a learning curve and we definitely have two “mono-services” that we’re actively braking down due to it accumulating seven years worth of different ideas and implementations.

I think currently I’m still heavily in favor in microservices in a project of our scale as it easily let’s us enhance, trash, or reimplement different areas of the app; but man is it a pain in the ass to manage sometimes 😂

I think we have ~400 microservices of varying types that deploy in many ways to many places (big proponents of using the right tools for the job rather than forcing preferred tools) and definitely in the last block. Although, as a DevOps guy my life would be a lot easier if we had a handful of monster monoliths, I understand it doesn't make sense for our scale. I can fantasize though, and this meme hits extremely close to home 😅

Tangentially, at my previous job we were in blocks 4 and 5 of transitioning away from a single monolith. Major issues arise when a "Java only shop for 20 years" start down this path with an extreme mindset of "we only use Java". Java kubernetes controllers? lmfao, no thanks (they wanted them though 😑)

What do you prefer Microservices or Monoliths? Yes.

Trying to do Postgresql TLS /w Internal PKI chain created by Cert-Manager made me want to throw my laptop out the window yesterday.

This stuff is hard.

Just tell the security team to handle it 😎

(My security team would NOT be amused by this joke suggestion)

[–] tyw0kki@programming.dev 10 points 1 year ago

I am the security team :'(

Not who you replied to, but mine would tell me no and then laugh at me

I'm starting to learn full-stack development. This meme scares me, ngl.

It's not so bad, microservices let's you focus on your current task instead of having to deal with years upon years of legacy code every day.

Microservices can get messy but they are much better than the alternative even if you aren't looking at performance and scalability.

Man, micro-services really could mean anything...

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 7 points 1 year ago

It's always the full circle - from monolith, to micro services, then someone just copies the code back to the main repo, and we're back to square one.

I like how monorepo is at the bottom.

Im at the logging and security layer at my company rip
