Monoliths, clouds and microservices – an evolution

Summary of Module Content:

The aim of this module was to provide you a background understanding of

microservice architecture as a philosophy and the software engineering philosophies

that it is challenging. This was to ensure that you can conceptually orient this

philosophy both on its departure points for evolution, but also to understand the

value drivers that are making this approach appealing to software engineers and

businesses.

The learning activities encouraged you to tease out some of the di�erent ‘schools of

thought’ about microservices architecture and the bene�ts it o�ers developers and

the business. This content is laying the foundation for further discussion and in-depth

investigation of the di�erent components associated with ensuring that microservices

architecture delivers on promised value for businesses.
