While I think I understand microservices at a conceptual level, I continually find myself running into more questions than I do answers. So, when I saw that [Sam Newman]'s new book - Monolith to Microservices: Evolutionary Patterns to Transform Your Monolith - was finally available for Kindle, I purchased it and gobbled it up over Thanksgiving break. This book is awesome! ...
