We live in a Microservices world, and this world is there to stay. Back-end developers need to dive into Domain Driven Design, write stateless, resilient, highly available services, keep data synchronized through Change Data Capture, handle network failure, deal with authentication, authorization, JWT… and expose a beautiful Hypermedia API so the front-end developers can add a great user interface to it.
