Understanding the areas of business models, operations, structure, processes, and each unit's isolation boundary aids in designing services that correspond to a particular functional business capability.

Microservice is a software design methodology, delegated to perform an isolated decoupled single functionality (following the Single-Responsibility Principle from object-oriented SOLID design principles).  Moreover, microservices by design, are decoupled making it easy to develop, test, maintain, deploy, configure, monitor and scale modules independently. Microservices - Why? Having one microservice would not be helpful without it being able to interact with other microservices, to aid in bringing an end-to-end b...
