Great insights here! Everyone talks about scaling like it’s a binary choice: monolith or microservices. But most teams I’ve worked with didn’t fail because they picked the wrong architecture. They failed because they had no structure inside what they picked.

Great insight, William. I've also observed that! It requires clarity, discipline and technical vision.

Thanks for your input!

Great article! I’m curious, what are your thoughts on building microservices using gRPC versus REST? I’ve been exploring gRPC lately, and it feels very appealing considering that calling another service is just a function call away. I’m still trying to wrap my head around all of it and figure out what are the trade offs.
