Microservices Patterns
The article discusses the importance of understanding microservices patterns before implementation. It highlights common pitfalls that teams face when adopting multiple patterns simultaneously, leading to a distributed monolith. The guide provides insights on effective microservice architecture, focusing on key properties and the use of an API gateway.
- ▪Teams often fail at microservices by adopting too many patterns at once without understanding their specific problems.
- ▪A real microservice should be independently deployable, own its data, and be loosely coupled with other services.
- ▪An API gateway serves as a single entry point for services, managing routing, authentication, and other cross-cutting concerns.

They fail because they adopted all the patterns at once, before they understood which problems each one was actually solving.
