@dancres interesting read - what are you referring to specifically on recent micro-services commentary?

@csterwa martinfowler.com/articles/mi… - “We've seen many projects use this style in the last few years” - contrast with: queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=…

@dancres to clarify for myself on tweet size - Fowler's article is after-the-fact w/ little history info & Vogels includes history detail?

@csterwa No, I’m claiming that Fowler is rewriting history, ignoring the best part of a decade and attributing to the last few years only.

@dancres although micro-services arch pattern has been impl for decade++, Fowler refs May 2011 Venice mtg where term came up

@csterwa @dancres It seems the *term* dates from 2011, but the concept, of course, goes back to at least Unix @boicy

@martinfowler @csterwa @boicy Okay, what’s the value of encouraging the use of a new-term for an old practice/concept/approach?
2
@dancres What term do you suggest should be used instead?

@dancres I believe Martin references Amazon in the article, BTW

@stilkov He does but not in the context of service architecture itself. Pizza teams, you build it you run it etc, for sure.
