This is standard practice in the micro services world, bin ACID compliance and replace it with network partitions because you’re so fashionable you have no users and no data.

In the system I’m working on (it’s mongodb tastic) someone had added a try catch around everything (EVERYTHING) that reverts the service manually in the catch block. I don’t need to explain to people here how moronic rolling your own transactions like this is...

Everywhere using micro services appears to be the same :-/
