The only MMO I found "trying" to work it's way into microservice architecture
is Eve Online, but nothing to claim they have yet. (don't ask me, haha) Just
mentions something about having moved the game chat to being seperate making
it "one step closer" to the microservice architecture.
When you look at big data like Netflix, Amazon and Ebay using microservice
architecture, it may benefit them, but for this particular project, I can't
see any benefit at all for the work that would be involved for the devs just
to go in that direction. Are we even dealing with the kind of traffic volume
that would benefit from this ? I did a little reading on the pros, cons and
drawbacks involved. Doesn't seem worth it. Don't fix what's not broken ?
Would that kind of crossover involve discord and these forums being flooded
with support questions from "technical newbies" (past and future) ? <GRIN>
