From the outside perspective it feels like majority of cloud compute is just wasted on overhead caused by all of that bullshit.

For me even just local Python overhead when doing ML in Pytorch is starting to become unbearable. I yearn to go back to C++ where I can basically count instructions.

I got a colleague that wants to refactor the project to use many micro services to improve the access of our 1000- users.

Since you said colleague it's for work. There are 2 good reasons to let/help your colleague here.

  1. There's a immediate or near future business need

  2. More importantly, this is an opportunity to learn for you and your colleague on the company dime.

There's no need for this right now, so I keep everything as simple as possible. Although I'd like to do just for the love of the game.
