Microservice Architecture
A microservice is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of loosely coupled, independently deployable services. Each service in a microservice architecture (MSA) corresponds to a specific business capability and can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. This approach contrasts with the traditional monolithic architecture, where all components of an application are tightly integrated and deployed as a single unit. Key Characteristics of Microservices 1. Single Responsibility: - Each microservice focuses on a specific business function or domain, such as user authentication, payment processing, or inventory management. 2. Independence: - Microservices are designed to be independent units that can be developed, deployed, and scaled separately. This independence allows teams to work on different services concurrently without affecting the entire system. 3. Communication: - Microservices typically communicate with each other through
