The latest update in Experimental (in Early Access on April 13) adds Drones for point-to-point delivery without needing connecting belts or rails or whatever. They're pretty low-bandwidth so you can't use them to transport raw materials at any scale, but if your "microservices" are sufficiently focused at a higher tier, you can tie them all together pretty easily with Drones now.

At least, in theory. Drones are T8 tech, and I'm not _quite_ there yet to start putting that theory into practice. But that's the stated intent, at least.
