Microservices

Microservices divide a connected system into separately managed capabilities with explicit ownership and interfaces.

For: Engineering teams whose scale or ownership needs justify service boundaries.

Overview

Give each service a clear responsibility.

Begin with business responsibilities and data ownership before splitting a system. Each service needs a clear contract and operating model, alongside a plan for requests, background events and failures between services.

Possible use cases

Use cases for Microservices.

Domain services

Assign focused ownership of a business capability and its records.

Integration services

Isolate connections to external systems behind a clear interface.

Independent workloads

Separate components with different release or scaling needs.

Plan the right scope

What to bring to the discussion.

  • Domain boundaries and authoritative data ownership
  • Communication, consistency and failure handling
  • Observability, deployment and support capacity
