The quote at the end “don’t even consider microservices unless you have a system that’s too complex to manage as a monolith.” causes me to laugh.

I have never fundamentally disagreed with a well-known domain expert as much as I have with Martin Fowler, and I have had a fairly successful career despite my attitude of "do things the way M.F. wouldn't".

On one hand I find it frustrating how people take his ideas as gospel. On the other hand I'm humbled to think there isn't necessarily "one right way" and other schools of thought can find success.

This comment would be more interesting if instead of laughing you would state what your other way of doing it.
