It reminds me of the 'Colossus' computer built by Turing, Flowers et. al., and I've never heard of that movie.

It is a slightly odd name for a framework though.

Especially one that espouses building a system out of a collection of loosely coupled microservices, as opposed to a single 'colossal' monolith!

First thing I thought when I read the description of the name. Ironic much?
