Well, I think the project does indeed have a branding or marketing problem that needs to be addressed in terms of the positioning of the MicroProfile. I'd be more than happy to help out with that.
More than just microservices?
First, the project name includes the word 'Micro.' Today, any time someone hears Micro they think MicroServices. I certainly do. Is the MicroProfile designed specifically for developing and deploying microservices? I think that is definitely the impression most passing observers have, and I don't recall anything out in the wild today that does much to dissuade people from that opinion. Anytime I hear about MP, it's about a RESTful web services packaged up in Docker and deployed to the cloud.
What does the 'micro' in 'MicroProfile' mean?
Or does the term 'micro' in the project's name just refer to the platform, indicating it is small and lightweight and a good base for everything? If that's the case, that message is not getting out there to the community.
When I open the Eclipse MicroProfile document from the site's landing page, I see a document that talks about JAX-RS, CDI, and REST. It would indicate to me that you shouldn't even be creating a SOAP based web services with MicroProfile, but only REST based ones. Can I be blamed for jumping to that conclusion?
And how do you add JSF to an MP project? How do you add Java MVC? It would look to the casual observer like it's not supported. Or is the idea that people should use the MicroProfile and simply add the version of JSF they want to use to the POM and off they go? Same with JAX-RS?
In fairness, Spring Boot suffers a bit of the same problem. I published an article recently on creating a Spring MVC app using Spring Boot and people seemed surprised that you could use Spring Boot for something other than microservices. I'd be happy to write the same article using MicroProfile and JSF? Or maybe Java MVC (JSR-371)? But what would be the right way to do it?
