Current cloud services are moving away from monolithic designs and towards graphs of many loosely-coupled, single-concerned microservices. Microservices have several advantages, including speeding up development and deployment, allowing…
Microservice is a popular software architecture that relies on decentralized teams and clear service ownership to support modularity and scalability. However, in practice, developers frequently contribute across multiple services, creating…
Microservices is an emerging development paradigm where software is obtained by composing autonomous entities, called (micro)services. However, microservice systems are currently developed using general-purpose programming languages that do…
The microservice software architecture is more scalable and efficient than its monolithic predecessor. Despite its increasing adoption, microservices might expose security concerns and issues that are distinct from those associated with…
In this vision paper I propose a middle-ground alternative between monolithic and microservice web architectures. After identifying the key challenges associated with microservice architectures, I revised the design of a microkernel-based…
Microservice architectures have gained popularity as one of the preferred architectural approaches to develop large-scale systems, replacing the monolith architecture approach. Similarly, strategic Domain-Driven Design (DDD) gained traction…
[Context] Microservices enable the decomposition of applications into small and independent services connected together. The independence between services could positively affect the development velocity of a project, which is considered an…
Microservice architecture has transformed the way developers are building and deploying applications in the nowadays cloud computing centers. This new approach provides increased scalability, flexibility, manageability, and performance…
Microservices architectures allow for short deployment cycles and immediate effects but offer no safety mechanisms when service contracts need to be changed. Maintaining the soundness of microservice architectures is an error-prone task…
Matrix is a new message-oriented data synchronization middleware, used as a federated platform for near real-time decentralized applications. It features a novel approach for inter-server communication based on synchronizing message history…
Microservice is a way of splitting the logic of an application into small blocks that can be run on different computing units and used by other applications. It has been successful for cloud applications and is now increasingly used for…
Microservice Architecture (MSA) is an architectural style for service-based software systems. MSA puts a strong emphasis on high cohesion and loose coupling of the services that provide systems' functionalities. As a result of this,…
The last few years in the software engineering field has seen a paradigm shift from monolithic application towards architectures in which the application is split in various smaller entities (i.e., microservices) fueled by the improved…
Recently the trend of companies switching from microservice back to monolith has increased, leading to intense debate in the industry. We conduct a multivocal literature review, to investigate reasons for the phenomenon and key aspects to…
Microservice Architecture (MSA) denotes an emerging architectural style for distributed and service-based systems whereby each microservice is highly cohesive and implements a single business capability. A microservice system consists of…
In recent decades, it has become a significant tendency for industrial manufacturers to adopt decentralization as a new manufacturing paradigm. This enables more efficient operations and facilitates the shift from mass to customized…
An application is a logical image of the world on a computer. A scalable application is an application that allows one to update that logical image at run time. To put it in operational terms: an application is scalable if a client can…
The Microservices Architecture (MSA) design pattern has become a staple for modern applications, allowing functionalities to be divided across fine-grained microservices, fostering reusability, distribution, and interoperability. As…
Microservice architectures form the backbone of modern software systems for their scalability, resilience, and maintainability, but their rise in cloud-native environments raises energy efficiency concerns. While prior research addresses…
