But there's more to the topic of microservices. Seems like all the conversation focuses on deployment pain. You can build a service with something like Akka or Moleculer where the modules act independently and have some message passing and resilience from each other, but they can still all live in one codebase, one process, and deployed as one unit. It works fine and isn't painful at all. And maybe down the line you decide to split the thing up into multiple processes and multiple deployment units, and that's an easy refactor because the modules are already somewhat separated.
