📄️ What is a Microservice?
A microservice is a small, independent, and loosely coupled service that is designed to perform a specific task. It is a software development technique that structures an application as a collection of services. Each service is a self-contained unit that can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. Microservices are designed to be small, lightweight, and easy to understand, which makes them easier to develop, test, and maintain.
📄️ Microservice vs Monolith
In the landscape of software architecture, two primary design patterns stand out: microservices and monolithic architectures. Each architecture has its own set of benefits, challenges, and ideal use cases, affecting how applications are developed, deployed, and scaled. This documentation provides a comparative overview of microservices and monolithic architectures, aimed at helping developers, architects, and decision-makers understand which approach best suits their project needs.
📄️ Best Practices
Microservices architecture is a powerful approach to building scalable, flexible, and resilient applications. However, designing, implementing, and managing microservices comes with its own set of challenges. This documentation outlines best practices for microservices architecture, aimed at helping developers, architects, and platform engineers build and maintain successful microservices-based applications.
