Microservices Architecture

Microservices architecture refers to a software development approach that structures an application as a collection of small, independently deployable services, each responsible for a specific function or feature. These services communicate with each other through well-defined APIs and often run in separate containers or processes. Microservices promote modularity, scalability, and flexibility in software design, allowing teams to develop, deploy, and maintain services independently. This architecture is commonly used in modern cloud-native applications and is known for its ability to support continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices.
