Architecture design of our system 

In this section, we will look at the architectural aspects involved in distributed microservices. We will look at our overall architecture diagram, which we are going to make throughout the book, and look at aspects such as separating concerns, how to apply reactive patterns, and the microservice efficiency model. So, let's get started.

Now that we know our business requirements, let's design our architecture. Based on our knowledge of microservices and other concepts from Chapter 1, Debunking Microservices, we have the final overall diagram, as shown here:

Microservice architecture

Note

We will study components such as API Gateway, service registry, and discovery in much more detail in later chapters. Here, they are just mentioned as part of the overall view.

Let's understand the key components in the preceding diagram to get a better idea of our architecture.

Different microservices 

If we understood our business requirements correctly, we will come up with...
