Microservice Architecture & Development

​

Microservices are highly granular and autonomous Web Services.

​

As opposed to Web Services developed in the context of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Microservices add complexity to an enterprise. However, there can be specific scenarios where the complexity is warranted. Examples include Large Commercial Websites and Machine Learning Models (click here for additional information).

​

With respect to commercial websites, the granularity and autonomy of Microservices ensures that a service failure is contained and has little impact on the remainder of a given website. Further, for the same reasons, Microservices enable savings through selective scalability.

​

On the other hand, machine learning models need to work with large amounts of data and execute complex algorithms. By isolating a model's data and ensuring it has dedicated resources via an isolated process provides a guarantee of performance. These facts are behind strategies that expose these models through Microservices.

​

Given the above, our service will determine whether Microservices are the best fit for a solution, and if they are, we will implement the services according to the most appropriate technologies.
