summary
Argues that microservices are a consequence of lean, agile and DevOps rather than a silver-bullet product; recommends services small enough to build or replace in a single sprint and warns that enterprises repeat SOA mistakes (ESBs, central IT ownership). Cites tools and patterns that actually help: CI/CD, automation, Netflix-like meshes, Istio, AlphaGo’s fail‑fast small‑step lesson (13x13/19x19 boards, 4–1 historic wins), and data patterns like CQRS and event sourcing. Calls out surprises: expect ~20% refactoring and many organizations still deploy fewer than five times a year.
