Implementing Microservices on AWS

Implementing Microservices on AWS
Abstract
Microservices are an architectural and organizational approach to software development to speed up deployment cycles, foster innovation and ownership, improve maintainability and scalability of software applications, and scale organizations delivering software and services by using an agile approach that helps teams to work independently from each other.
Using a microservices approach, software is composed of small services that communicate over well- defined APIs that can be deployed independently.
These services are owned by small autonomous teams.
This agile approach is key to successfully scale your organization.
There are three common patterns that we observe when our customers build microservices: API driven, event driven, and data streaming.
In this whitepaper, we introduce all three approaches and summarize the common characteristics of microservices, discuss the main challenges of building microservices, and describe how product teams can leverage Amazon Web Services (AWS) to overcome these challenges.
