Honestly, if you don't have a conclusion where you probably don't need message brokers, you are really missing a critical aspect. Because even if you are doing something complex, it is still better done without one. Before adding a message broker decide, "can this be done a different way" first. If the answer is yes, then you should absolutely not be using a message broker. If the answer is no, then consult relevant literature.

Telling people to use message brokers in every case is just irresponsible.
