potrei··on Musical notation disguised as the oldest programming language
Yes, but not all programming languages are Turing complete. Type 3 languages, for example, are not Turing complete.
potrei··on Developments around Microservices, API Gateways, Kubernetes and Service Mesh
Yes, I agree. That's why I said that it's necessary to change the way application are designed. And, of course, there's no silver bullet. Sometimes micro-services architecture is not the way to go.
potrei··on Developments around Microservices, API Gateways, Kubernetes and Service Mesh
Apart from the specific technology used, it's important to change the way applications are designed and implemented. I saw many projects in trouble because they merely split a monolithic application into small pieces, without applying a new model of design and thinking. If you approach micro-services development without changing your mind first, you will fail.
