@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?

@dancres What term do you suggest should be used instead?

@stilkov SOA. It’s just services: queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=…

@dancres Fair enough. SOA is more often thought to mean enterprise-wide integration and much bigger services, though.

@stilkov @dancres @trondhr but that's just a misconception. EAI as applied in most Enterprises has nothing to do with SOA

@jeppec @dancres @trondhr Who has authority to define what SOA is or isn’t?

@stilkov @jeppec @trondhr Wrong question for me. More useful is why we repeat history and overload terms preventing forward motion.

@dancres @jeppec @trondhr Maybe we just need to stop being offended by seeing new labels put on only slightly different stuff.

@stilkov @jeppec @dancres I think DOn Box defined it best with his tenets of service orientation. He and Pat Helland.

@trondhr @stilkov @jeppec +1 Helland.

@stilkov @dancres @trondhr It seems anyone. I guess we can agree there's two camps? The hard coupled and the loosely coupled...
