With the continuous expansion of the electric power marketing business, the demand for new services is constantly increasing and the required functions continue to raise, the issues of multiple inter-system interfaces and interactions, diversified interface technologies, diverse data replication approaches, and multiple data transmission channels, are more prominent in the current electric power marketing business application system and have affected the regular operations and development of the electric power marketing services and applications. This paper proposes the microapplications and microservices architecture based on microservices framework to implement the applications and functions. Based on this architecture, it describes the design method of an integrated electric power marketing business information system and elaborates each technical layer in the overall architecture, which includes the application access layer, microapplications layer, microservices layer, data resource layer and basic platform layer, by unifying the technical architecture and implementation technologies of the information system, reducing the business interactions, interface interactions, data replication and data transmission within the system, to be suitable for the future development of the electric power marketing business. Finally the paper describes the system verification with the typical business scenario of charging and accounting in the electric power marketing business.
