At the last place I was at. We had a micro serviced monolith. I can't even begin to describe that thing in common engineering terms. (note: it's better than it seems).

In case you're wondering about the downvotes, a micro services monolith sounds like an oxymoron.

Could you expand on how the architecture actually looked? What made it a monolith and what made it micro serviced?

Maybe they were referring to a distributed monolith?
