Having investigated the pros and cons of microservices, we can start to work on implementing a microservices architecture in Clojure.
RESTful microservices in action
Application overview
In Chapter 7, The UI as a Function, we created a simple Trello-like application to manage an agile board. We stored the data in a Clojure atom. In a more realistic example, we would store the data in a database. Let's suppose that we need to create a native app for such a board. On top of having a web application, we need a phone app. Storing the data directly in an app is not an option, as we need to synchronize the phone and web apps. The board's data that's used by both applications are a good candidate for a separate microservice...
