Quick Definition:
Microservices Architecture is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of small, independent services that communicate over a network.
Benefits for the Project
- Scalability: Each service can be scaled independently based on its specific needs.
- Flexibility: Different services can be built using different technologies and languages.
- Resilience: If one service fails, the rest of the application can often continue to function.
- Faster Delivery: Small, independent teams can develop and deploy services more quickly.
The Challenges
Microservices also introduce complexity in terms of service communication, data management, and deployment orchestration. PMs must carefully weigh the benefits against these costs.
