Microservices promised us independence. Deploy faster. Scale smarter. Own your service end to end.
What they delivered — for engineers who didn’t follow the right practices — was a distributed monolith. Services that couldn’t deploy independently. Teams that stepped on each other’s schemas. A network of 50 tiny services that all had to go out together because nobody drew proper boundaries.
The difference between microservices done right and microservices done wrong is not the technology. It’s the practices.
This post covers all 9 — with real code, production anti-patterns, and the reasoning behind each decision. Not theory. Engineering.
