We've been writing about how the powerful emergence of microservices architecture is instigating the need for legacy modernization in order to embrace modernity. As we all know, the key mitigation technique has been divide and conquer. This mantra has been shining not only to engineer fresh systems but also to disintegrate legacy systems. As legacy applications are hugely complicated, partitioning them into a number of smaller pieces is also being accomplished through segmentation approaches. Functionality-based segregation is one way of implementing disintegration. Once a legacy application is subdivided into a number of application modules, the real modernization begins; that is, there are many application services to be extricated out of archaic and massive applications.
As mentioned previously, the extracted application components are made into...
