As the migration effort got underway, both Addison and Austen started getting overwhelmed with all of the decisions involved with breaking apart the domain services previously identified. The development team also had its own opinions, which made decision making for service granularity even more difficult.
“I’m still not sure what to do with the core ticketing functionality,” said Addison. “I can’t decide whether ticket creation, completion, expert assignment, and expert routing should be one, two, three, or even four services. Taylen is insisting on making everything fine-grained, but I’m not sure that’s the right approach.”
“Me neither,” said Austen. “And I’ve got my own issues trying to figure out if the customer registration, profile management, and billing functionality should even be broken apart. And on top of all that, I’ve got another game this evening.”
“You’ve always got a game to go to,” said Addison. “Speaking of customer functionality, did you ever figure out if the customer login functionality is going to be a separate service?”
“No,” said Austen, “I’m still working on that as well. Skyler says it should be separate, but won’t give me a reason other than to say it’s separate functionality.”
“This is hard stuff,” said Addison. “Do you think Logan can shed any light on this?”
“Good idea,” said Austen, “This seat-of-the-pants analysis is really slowing things down.”
