That qualifies as a microsservice in my book :)

To add more: you get there by not practicing SOA, never breaking up a service, working at a company constantly ships new product rather than focusing on restructuring the application, not having developers own both the build and deployment of the app such that they don't experience the pain; reasons, etc.

Come on, you can have million lines of code and still get binaries of few megabytes. If that counts as microservice then everything does.

This is a frequent problem when discussing microservices - nobody defines how large they actually are.

Size is not the only reason, sometimes it's about performance and system utlization.

Separation of concerns tends to be my strongest indicator for defining service boundaries.

Rumor has it that eBay had to switch to 64-bit architectures because their binary exceeded 4GB in size.

So... apparently it happens.
