Microservices and Workflow
A Match Made in Heaven.
Microservices unlock agility...
The microservice architecture allows different software teams to quickly iterate and deploy isolated software systems.
Deployable software applications can more closely align with business domains, enabling closer collaboration between engineering and business stakeholders.
...but they bring complexity.
While individual teams can at first deploy their services more rapidly, interdependencies between microservices can cause friction, strong coupling, and brittle architectures.
Debugging choreographed workflows across multiple microservices can be a gruelling cross-functional effort with no oversight.
