Creating a microservice architecture
In cloud-native architecture, microservices play a vital role in breaking down extensive features into smaller, manageable chunks that can scale independently. This approach allows for specific components to be scaled up or down as needed without affecting the entire system. By using microservices, a system is designed to be fault-tolerant, meaning itβs constructed with potential failures in mind, allowing for the graceful degradation of application availability and preventing widespread system failures.
The clear advantage of microservices is that you have to maintain a smaller code surface area. Microservices should always be independent. You can build each service with no external dependencies where all prerequisites are included, which reduces the inter-dependency between application modules and enables loose coupling.
The other overarching concept of microservices is bounded contexts, which are the blocks that combine to make...
