  1. At the risk of sounding like I don't get the joke; a little context for the uninitiated: We're still decoupling as much as possible, we're just doing it in a smarter way which allows us to make simpler use of a single source of truth. (1 monorepo, but still many micro-services)

  2. Prime still uses microservices, it's just the VQA (Video Quality Analysis) product that moved their product from multiple microservices to a larger microservice. They still maintain horizontal scalability, as there's a load balancer in front of the service (this scale cannot be achieved without horizontal scalability). I don't know why they decided to use the term monolith, probably to get more impressions.

  4. Not sure if I should be proud or ashamed that I instantly recognized it as base64 😂

  5. I work with a micro frontend every day (though admittedly on the backend). Do you have any specific questions? I may be able to answer them.

  6. Just pointing out the obvious: There are definitely legit usecases for a FaaS architecture.
