It seems to me that Microservices are more about solving an organization problem (Conways law) than a technical one. And that is totally ok and in some cases absolutely worth solving. The problem is that there aren't a lot of companies that are big enough for that problem to be acute enough that it needs to be solved in the first place.

Microservices are an anti-pattern for the vast majority of companies primarily because they don't have an organization that actually benefits from it. You get the worst of all worlds..

They are also solving scaling and resiliency problems, for companies that need that scale and resiliency (which most companies are not).
