If you have centralized data then you have broken the abstraction and are in for a world of hurt. You shouldn't need centralized data, just a service front door where that service is the master of that part of the data.

So what are you gonna do when you need data migrations?

PS: I'm not saying using one DB with microservices, it's still with the monolith

Migrations per service are exactly why you separate them out in the first place. Reading your comments in this thread has been painful.

If you have multiple things sharing one data store, having ownership over the structure of the data is very difficult.

Did you read the PS? According to your condescending tone you did not.

What kind of data migration did you have in mind, and what's the problem with it?
