Eugen, thank you for your insights! I discovered Moqui, which appears to address several of my issues, although I have yet to experiment it more.

Microservices that share a DB might not be "true" microservices but we can go with that. I'm quite new to OFBiz myself and figuring out how to deploy it for the same purpose. I believe docker might help to ease deployment so I am working on making a docker image [1], [2] and kubernetes chart [3] Some of the ideas I have is to: * Deploy OFBiz apps with framework as libraries (need to be published) - as HTTP app * I think using a shared cache is mandatory * Use a proxy in front to route requests to the right microservice Some things that would help IMO are: * for OFBiz to have an API - it's easier IMO to reason about and less dependencies per microservice * OFBiz to publish libraries of framework apps so we can reuse them in apps without having to build everything I'm looking forward to hearing more ideas about this.
