Avoid microservices as a default choice

Episode notes: https://threedots.tech/episode/the-distributed-monolith-trap/

We talk about splitting software: when to do it, how to avoid common pitfalls, and why microservices aren’t always the answer. We share stories from past projects where we jumped on the microservices hype train without thinking through the real problems we were trying to solve. The key insight is that splitting software is more about organizing teams and maintaining good boundaries than about technology.
