Microservices Vol. 3: You may not really need all those microservices

Join us for our third Mircroservices meetup!

DESCRIPTION

Through a couple of past consulting engagements, I have seen companies eager to start off their projects with microservices. This can prove costly in the long run, completely contrary to the perceived benefits of adopting microservices .

In this talk we discuss reasons as to why this is often not the best decision to take when doing a greenfield project, and we also talk about alternatives to this approach.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER

My name is Vineeth Venudasan, a consultant software engineer for ThoughtWorks. I have had the privilege of working with a lot of engineering teams over the past years that have adopted microservices to solve their business problems - and I've learnt a few things along the way.
I would like to present these learnings, and discuss them with you in the intention of knowledge sharing, and in-turn, also maybe gaining further perspective from all of you.
