Django is just as good as any web framework at building microservices. It provides all the foundations for storing data in a database and building a resilient HTTP API. But if you find yourself asking “should I build microservices?” the answer is probably no. See all the resources linked at [http://microservices.fail](http://microservices.fail) .
