As a backend developer, she had numerous opportunities to witness ill-informed migrations from monolith to microservices, and she is sharing her experience with us.  When you finish listening to this episode, connect with Nelida on X and visit her blog at https://tolkiana.com.  Mentioned in this episode: Nelida on X at: https://twitter.com/tolkiana Nelida’s blog at https://tolkiana.com
