The application life cycle management (ALM) of microservices
ALM in the context of microservices refers to the process of managing the entire life cycle of microservices-based applications, from their initial design and development to deployment, operation, and eventual decommissioning. ALM encompasses various stages and activities that ensure the smooth functioning and continuous improvement of the microservices architecture. Here’s a breakdown of the microservices that ALM processes:
- Design and development:
- In this stage, the microservices architecture is planned and designed based on the specific requirements of the application.
- Services are defined, and their boundaries are established using DDD principles.
- Development teams work on individual microservices, implementing them independently using the programming language and technology stack that suits each service best.
- Collaboration among teams is crucial to ensure seamless integration and compatibility between services...
