This addresses scalability issues for software developers and architects, but it is incremental as it builds on existing service-oriented computing concepts.
The paper tackles the challenge of improving application scalability by describing the main features of microservice architecture and highlighting how these features enhance scalability, without providing specific numerical results.
The microservice architecture is a style inspired by service-oriented computing that has recently started gaining popularity and that promises to change the way in which software is perceived, conceived and designed. In this paper, we describe the main features of microservices and highlight how these features improve scalability.
