Beyond the Hype: Facing Micro Frontend Challenges in Large Scale
summary
Company runs 400 engineers, 1,000 backend microservices and reports handling 3 million events/sec while operating 75 micro frontends. Teams enforce a shared design system via Storybook, automated semantic releases, CSS isolation and hourly end‑to‑end tests; dependency drift is tracked with Sourcegraph and bundle issues are caught with Datadog. An internal tool called Sunlight scans package.json across repos, scores team migration progress (example: enzyme → react‑testing‑library rollout), and surfaces version skew so upgrades and rollbacks happen predictably. Datadog monitoring drives alerts and quick fixes.
