That number really store out to me too. I’d be very curious how they decide what becomes a separate service.

I’d also be curious if the 50m lines of code included generated code.

I did not work in Uber, but a similar company, and... it's a very political thing, usually.

Taking an existing service and making it into 2 new microservices is a "thing you did". Suddenly, you have "impact" and can claim the new service as "yours". Everyone wants to be a king of their little kingdom.

You are me and I am you, I'll always be with you
