# 45 - Battle of Microservices

What's up, guys? We are here with another Kubicast for you! This time, we talked about Software Architecture with two special guests, Thiago Avelino, entrepreneur and Software developer, and Felipe Oliveira, newly arrived at the Getup team to take on the role of head of Product Engineering. Getting straight to the point, we asked them what is better: betting on the full hype using microservices for everything or the total old school running everything as a monolith? Felipe replied that “it depends”; Avelino said that “first of all, it is necessary to question the reasons behind the choices”. Nothing simple, here is a dilemma! Is there a feasible middle ground between these two? To find out the opinion of these masters, you need to listen to Kubiscat #44. Just hit play!  ===== RECOMMENDATIONS from the show's participants: João: 12 strong - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1413492/ Felipe: Platform Revolution - https://www.amazon.com.br/s?k=platform+revolution&adgrpid=81898279155&gclid=CjwKCAjw1K75BRAEEiwAd41h1D2ZAm3yQar5sRjmkyFMj2pHG3Bi3UOO6q-sr3nOOrULkDDu0e-PsxoCh0IQAvD_BwE&hvadid=425982603721&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=1001773&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=18358766888800251334&hvtargid=kwd-2124246272&hydadcr=5629_11235159&tag=hydrbrgk-20&ref=pd_sl_lzql02j7g_e Avelino: Have a reading habit, practice a sport, and work in a team! ===== Until the next show, guys!
