Breaking your application into ‘micro-services’
We used to have a single huge application server
Having one big service (API) supporting all client side requests
Now we can ‘containerize’ the big service and break it down into many smaller pieces
Each ‘container’ providing a ‘service’ to one specific module / functionality
As needed, these ‘containers’ can be created and destroyed, depending on client’s requests
These type of services are commonly referred to as ‘micro-services’
P.S.
A very vague and loosely defined terms are used here.
