"As with everything, there are advantages and disadvantages"

The author focuses on microservices, however, I think there is a larger point to be made. It is not that some particular architectural pattern is bad or good, it's that when you don't fully consider the requirements of your application and apply some pattern or technology just because it's the hot item this week you are going to end up with problems. This has less to do with microservices, in my experience, and more to do with less technical managers making decisions for a project when they don't fully understand.
