Seeing through the microservices hype – Peter Morris
ship the whole app - not the pieces

We are converting nanosecond duration in-process code to millisecond duration out-of-process calls, so thousands of times slower, more complicated to write, more difficult to understand, more difficult to ensure data consistency, and so on.

I agree. Intra-app communication should be a monolith by design. You have a million other optimizations to solve before microservices
