Thread - Module 4.1 - Learning Activity 1 - Technology Stack &..

The document discusses whether microservices within an application need to share the same technology stack. It presents arguments that using multiple programming languages can increase flexibility but also complexity, and that limiting technology stacks reduces complexity but limits flexibility. It also discusses staffing implications of different technology stack approaches.

A technology stack is a set of tools developers to create an application. As
we discussed earlier on the subject, one of the biggest advantages of using
microservices is to offer an option and flexibility to choose in a
programming language, database, and the other tools within the
deployment as long as the components can communicate through API and
exchange the messages.
On the one hand, using multiple programming languages - polyglot
architecture - can be beneficial for developers to choose the best option
based on the environment that they will be most comfortable with. In
addition, in the microservices, the components do not have to share the
same tech stack as they are loosely coupled. These features give
developers the freedom and increase their creativity by not sticking to only
one programming language to deliver the need of organisations on time.
On the other hand, Nadareishvili et al. (2016, p. 112) discussed that using
many different languages may cause complexity in the system, which is
why sometimes companies prefer to limit the programming languages.
Additionally, from a business perspective, having various tech stacks within
one system creates a need for the company to hire and keep multiple
developers who are experts in the relevant languages/solutions.
