Minor (but biggest for us) painpoint: CI pipeline tooling in a microservice environment. This breaks down into a few parts:
* CI tooling (ie for git push master to be automatically deployed to kubernetes) requires eg git + travis which is somewhat expensive for eg personal development, or manual devops work, which is somewhat expensive work-hours wise
* setup time for each microservice is just on the boundary where it happens infrequently enough to not get scripted, but each new one takes an hour to set up manually
* CI deployment time for eg docker builds on Travis can take 3-5 minutes, which is not great if prod breaks
