Every time I see microservices, I think of Martin Fowler's First Law of Distributed Object Design: "Don't distribute your objects." http://martinfowler.com/bliki/FirstLaw.html

Splitting your app into multiple apps that send each other HTTP requests or MQ messages seems likely to just make your app slower.

If speed is your only requirement, write the thing in assembly.

If speed is not a requirement, just write the thing in Django (or Rails)?

I'm just not compelled by the reasons the author gave for needing to switch from Django to microservices.
