In this chapter, we got a clear understanding of what microservices are, their benefits, and how they evolved from SoA. We now have a set of principles that we could use to create them, and an overview of how Domain-Driven Design will allow us to evolve our applications as per our requirements. Following these designs, we could have a clean architecture that will help our microservices' life cycle, from development to scaling or monitoring. We should be familiar with the benefits of the reactive systems and the cloud computing model, that will allow us to deliver microservices to the next level of industry standards.
But next, we need to start from the basics, so in the next chapter, we will focus on how we can get started on microservices with Kotlin using Spring Boot 2.0, meanwhile, we will learn the tools that we will use to create them.
