In this chapter, we've compared the monolithic versus microservice approach to building web applications, and it became apparent that it's not a binary world where you have to pick one model on day one and stick with it.

It is a useful approach as we've learned in this chapter, but it should be done carefully to avoid falling into some common traps.

Another important lesson is that Python is considered to be one of the best languages to write web applications, and therefore, microservices--for the same reasons, it's a language of choice in other ...
