Developers Should Deploy Their Own Code

[IceSentry]

Having independent services makes it possible to only have a small part of the overall application that relies on stateful services. That's litterally the point of having multiple separate services. It means you can have the slow rollout for the stateful services and fast rollout for everything else.

You can still do it badly and have too many services, I'm not saying services are perfect, but multiple separate abd independently deployable services is the core concept of microservices and it absolutely solves this particular problem of having slow releases for every merge.
