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.
The Twelve-Factor App
The Twelve-Factor App is a set of best practices for building modern, cloud-native applications. It provides a comprehensive guide to designing applications that are scalable, maintainable, and resilient. The principles of the 12 Factor App are particularly relevant to microservices architecture, as they emphasize the importance of decoupling, automation, and flexibility.
