Chapter Conclusion

Individual microservices can differ greatly in their technical micro architecture. This freedom is a major advantage of microservices architectures.

Advantages of microservices #

• The macro architecture and the challenges associated with implementing microservices can be used to derive requirements for micro architecture and microservices technologies.

• Reactive programming can be used to implement microservices, but this is not mandatory to meet the requirements.

• Spring Boot and Java meet the requirements, just like Go does with the appropriate libraries.

• There are also many other alternative languages that can be used to implement microservices, e.g. Python.
