Deep dive into fundamental knowledge about microservices and background information about the concepts behind the microservices architecture approach.

Microservices Architecture

In this module we’ll learn about microservices in depth and understand the reasons for using and not using microservices. We’ll also learn about micro and macro architecture, strategies for migrating old systems, the role of Docker in this architecture, and technologies for implementing microservices like Spring Boot and Go.

After this module, you’ll be better equipped to implement microservices.

An Introduction to Microservice Principles and Concepts

## Overview

A typical microservice system contains more than a single Docker
container. As explained in [chapter 2](https://www.educative.io/courses/introduction-microservice-principles-concepts/introduction-N7Y2ZzKNl1p),
microservices are modules of a system. 

It would be good to have a
way to start and run several containers together for starting all the
modules that the system consists of in one go. This can be done with
[Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/).
