Micro Frontends at Scale with Luca Mezzalira (O’Reilly Author and Principal Architect at AWS)

In this episode of Señors @ Scale, Dan sits down with Luca Mezzalira, Principal Serverless Specialist at AWS and author of Building Micro-Frontends, for a deep and highly practical look at scaling frontend architectures for hundreds of developers. Luca shares the real story behind how micro-frontends were born — from his early experiments at DAZN trying to scale a live sports platform across 40 devices and 500+ engineers, to pioneering techniques that cut app startup times from 40 seconds to 12. We break down how distributed frontends actually work: How to design stable application shells with zero global state, How to compose independently deployed views without iframes, and how guardrails like bundle-size budgets and canary deployments keep massive systems fast and safe. Luca also explains the hidden challenges most teams miss — governance, team topology, and socio-technical design. He shows how to evolve from a monolith to micro-frontends step by step, using edge routing, feature flags, and domain-driven design to scale safely without rewrites. The conversation goes beyond theory — into the mechanics of migration, platform teams, CI/CD pipelines, and why friction in your system is actually a signal, not a failure. If you’re leading a frontend platform, planning a migration, or just trying to make sense of where micro-frontends actually fit, this episode is a masterclass in autonomy, architecture, and evolution at scale.
