I suspect that the &quot;microservices&quot; craze will soon have reach a &quot;MongoDB moment&quot;.  Where everyone has gotten burned from jumped in too quickly and blindly, and the pendulum swings back in the opposite direction.<p>However, right now microservices are <i>blowing up</i>.  The new greenfield project that I&#x27;m working on right now started out a year ago as a monolith with one repo.  It now has microservice components scattered across several DOZEN repos, with dev teams finding excuses to refactor into smaller and smaller granularity each month.
