    Microservices Architecture

    Introduction Microservices architecture is a design pattern where an application is composed of small, independent services that communicate with each other. This approach allows teams to develop, deploy, and scale services independently, improving flexibility and maintainability. Key Characteristics of Microservices:- Challenges of Microservices :- 1.  Complexity in Management 2.  Network Latency 3.  Data Consistency 4.…
