Every major pipeline or workflow engine today is either heavyweight, cluster-oriented, monolithic, or tied to Python. Nobody has built a microservice-native, Quarkus/JVM, gRPC-first, type-safe pipeline engine like The Pipeline Framework.

The hardest part might not be scaling microservices — it might just be having the courage to escape the monolith’s gravity the very first time. If your team has gone through this journey, what was your biggest first #microservices pain point?

Is there a tried-and-true methodology for breaking up a monolith into smaller microservices?

This is an anecdote really, but draws a very interesting conclusion.

“Soon, boy.”

Why give front page prominence to such lies and propaganda?
