Microservices Architecture: Decomposing Monoliths Into Scalable, Independent Services
Microservices architecture decomposes monolithic applications into independently deployable services — each owning its data, scaling independently, and communicating via APIs or events. Combined with Kubernetes for orchestration and Docker for containerization.
What Is Microservices Architecture and When to Use It
Microservices architecture structures applications as a collection of loosely coupled, independently deployable services. Each service owns its business domain, manages its own database, and communicates with other services via REST APIs, gRPC, or event-driven messaging (Kafka, RabbitMQ). Teams deploy services independently without coordinating with other teams.
Microservices are appropriate when: you have multiple development teams needing independent deployment, different services have different scaling requirements, you need technology diversity (different languages/frameworks per service), or your monolith has become unmaintainable. Microservices are NOT appropriate for small teams, simple applications, or when the operational complexity outweighs the development agility benefit.
