The way folks oversimplify takeaways is just... 🤦‍♂️
All the chat about the Prime Video thing, then "serverless bad", "microservices bad", "monolith good", ... 🤡

It's not a matter of one being bad and the other good. All are valid approaches, be it a monolith, a microservice or something in between, depends on each situation.

@joaofbantunes It’s not as if all of prime video is a monolith. A subset of functionality in the analysis system was refactored into a larger microservice from a bunch of smaller ones. The entire system is still a #microservice architecture.

@adrianco that's what I understood from the post as well, but folks are talking as if now the whole thing is a single monolith 🤣
