I'm interviewing for a job where I know micro service architecture will take much of the focus. I have Googled a lot and read a handful of blogs - none of it made as much sense as your video. SO well explained and simple to understand. Thank you!

Great explanation. Saves a lot of time watching a video like this instead of reading the dry online articles!

I think its important to know when to use micro services, sometimes a well structured monolith will do the trick, and they can still be scaled.

I spent two days to understand what are micro-services ? but no one can give me a short explanation to get scale.Perfect, it made a great sense, could you provide a new video how to structure nodejs app for micro-services, please !

So the idea of microservices is: work even if other services are not working, am i right?
