Right now I don't think microservice management is 'viable' even at larger companies. The custom deployment scripts & yaml to manage building, package/artifact repository, versioning, and deployment tends to be Too Damn Big, at least at the shops I've seen.

Oof. I haven't seen micro services much but, what I have seen makes me wonder what value people are actually expecting to get back. I hope the next iterations of this idea work better.

The problem is a few gigantic tech companies did it and it became trendy. The reality is it shouldn't be done until you are at a scale that requires it. Most companies never reach that scale.

Seriously trendy. I had a CTO try to claim we were doing microservices even though our stack just had a couple of different systems serving different APIs. We would just roll our eyes whenever this person would try to brag about it to other C-levels. This was for a team that was just big enough to maybe justify 2 managers at it’s peak.
