Microservice Architecture — Is It Right for Your Software Development?

“Microservice architecture provides a range of technical benefits that contribute to the development velocity and product quality in software projects, while also contributing to the overall business agility”– Mark Emeis, Senior director of software technologies, CA Technologies

Microservices have been gaining ground in software development since the term came into existence. Microservices, aka microservice architecture, is a variant of service-oriented architecture (SOA) for developing large applications where services are grained into chunks as per business domains. It enables the continuous delivery/deployment of complex applications and makes the application easier to understand, develop, and test, and is more resilient to architecture erosion. The microservice architecture provides a new way to weave existing systems in novel ways in order to deliver software solutions quickly. It's one of the hottest topics in the software industry due to its ability to provide modularity, scalability, availability; many enterprise software development companies are keen to adopt it.
