Containerizing an application is not the only way to deploy microservices. You can deploy microservices as individual services in Azure App Service, on virtual machines, or in any number of ways. Containers are the deployment tool that we'll use for our microservices for the rest of this modul...
Amicroserviceis a softwarearchitecture, which can be implemented with webservices. Awebserviceis just atechnology(one of many) for providing services over "web" or HTTP.
Microservices break up monolithic code into discrete chunks that are easier to maintain. Here's an overview and a look at the pros and cons of migrating to a microservices architecture.
Microservices are likely to be at least as popular with executives and project leaders as with developers. This is one of the more unusual characteristics of microservices because architectural enthusiasm is typically reserved for software development teams. The reason for this is that microservices bett...
If the termMicroserviceis new to you then chances are that you’re thinking the same thing that went through my mind when I first heard the term. “Oh great, yetanothernew technology that I need to learn about!” Thankfully you needn’t worry, as Microservices Architecture is just a new...
What Are Microservices? Microservicesarchitecture is an architectural style for structuring an application as a collection of different independent services. Each service is focused on a single responsibility and only performs tasks related to this responsibility. Robert C. Martin has coined the termsingle...
An application programming interface, or API, is the part of an application that is responsible for communicating with other applications. Within the infrastructure of microservices architecture, APIs play the critical role of allowing the different services within a microservice to share information and...
Learn how using microservices architecture on Azure makes it easier to develop and scale applications and bring new features to market faster.
Microservices are advantageous over monolithic applications for several reasons. Building them is easier due to their smaller size. You can deploy, scale, and maintain them more efficiently, as you can add more services to run in parallel at any step. Microservices are not new, as the concept ...
What language is used in a microservices architecture? One reason to use microservices is that any language can be used on individual microservices. To build microservices, a common communication protocol could be used for each component. As long as this is in place, the microservices can be pro...
