Microservice-based architecture is an approach to developing a single application as a suite of independent services. The services run in separate processes and communicate with each other via lightweight language-agnostic protocols, such as HTTP REST. The services are split following business capabilities; each service has a fully automated pipeline and is independently deployable.
