Summary
In this chapter, we learned about the relationship of the microservices architecture with a few other popular architecture styles.
We started with microservices relationships with SOA and Twelve-Factor Apps. We also examined the link between the microservices architecture and other architectures, such as serverless computing architecture and Lambda Architecture. We also learned the advantages of using microservices together with cloud and DevOps. We then analyzed examples of a few enterprises from different industries that successfully adopted microservices and their use cases. Finally, we reviewed some of the microservices frameworks evolved over a period of time.
In the next chapter, we will develop a few sample microservices to bring more clarity to our learnings in this chapter.
