Replying to @dancres
@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
2
@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?
2
@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 agree SOA is overloaded as enterprise (monolith) application integration (EAI) using webservices.

@jeppec @stilkov @trondhr I think the overloading of terms our industry indulges in would be a great topic in and of itself.

@dancres @jeppec @trondhr Maybe the most important topic. We just need to agree whether “overloading” is the right term :-)
