in thread Perl microservice framework

Java has well-understood and popular ecosystems for web and microservices with clear goals for different projects (eg. the need to extend Spring with Spring Boot, and others like Quarkus and Micronaut that tailor to different preferences).

...but then you'd be learning whole new frameworks any time you wanted to produce a slightly different style of web app? I'd much rather have flexible frameworks that do them all equally well.

    I was looking for a workflow engine and saw Workflow advertised as "designed to fit into your system rather than force your system to fit to it". The problem with flexibility is its susceptibility to bad design and architecture when the wielder's expertise is lacking.

    Also, technology oversaturation and fads can be largely avoided by sticking to server-side, backend, core business process and logic development. Or alternatively mitigated by coercing an existing framework into solving a particular problem and then hoping the requirements don't change. Heh.
