The Home Truths of Microservices

Eric Evans: I think one of the things that, with contract testing that I really sort of want to investigate and understand more deeply is packed. There was this fantasy that by doing microservices, we could ignore that other teams existed. And it turns out that that is going to put you into a world of hurt at some point. We do still have a coupling and let's try and front load that coupling and get it at development time by a contract rather than discovering the coupling at production time when it's much more problematic.
