Unlocking the Potential of Microservices: Bounded Contexts and Product-Oriented Development

🚀Microservices are smaller than traditional services and offer advantages such as easier replacement and scalable teams.

🔗Organizations that are tightly coupled tend to have tightly coupled designs, while loosely coupled organizations often create modular architectures.

🏗️Microservices should be built to withstand failure and foster resilience in the system.

📈Building microservices allows for faster delivery of features, enabling continuous learning and iterations.

🐍Traditional organizational structures can hinder software development processes, resulting in high transaction costs and delays.

How big is a microservice?

—Microservices are smaller than traditional services, typically between a day and two weeks of work.

How do microservices promote resilience?

—Microservices are designed to withstand failure through fault isolation and decentralized architectures.

What is the advantage of modular architectures?

—Modular architectures enable teams to scale independently, improve development speed, and facilitate easier maintenance and updates.

How can microservices accelerate feature delivery?

—Microservices enable faster delivery by breaking down complex systems into smaller, independent units that can be developed and deployed quickly.

Why do traditional organizational structures hinder software development?

—Traditional structures often result in silos, handoffs, and high transaction costs, slowing down the development process and hindering innovation.
