In this chapter, we learned about the relationship between microservices and DevOps. We also examined a number of practice points when developing microservices. Most importantly, we learned about the microservices development life cycle.
Later in this chapter, we also examined how to automate the microservices delivery pipeline from development to production. As part of this, we examined a number of tools and technologies that are helpful when automating the microservices delivery pipeline. Finally, we learned the importance of standard libraries and reference architectures in the microservices governance.
Putting together the concepts of microservices, challenges, best practices, and various capabilities covered in this book makes it a perfect recipe for developing successful microservices at scale.
