We saw this pretty early on in React, where everyone was taking all manner of state and putting it into Redux. We have to think about the principle of co-location and the fact that the closer you put related things together, the easier it will be to maintain in the longterm.2020-05-1939 min

Microservices is a different paradigm. And so, there's a lot of training that goes involved for different people to understand the various deployment processes.

So what if a feature works in staging, that's great, but you should care if the feature works in production, that's what matters.An excellent tool for testing in production is feature flagging.
