Chapter 10 – Microservices Architecture with GraalVM

Microservices is an architectural pattern that decomposes a large application into smaller, manageable, and self-contained components that expose the functionality through a standard interface called services. Please refer to the Microservices architecture overview section for more details.
The microservices architecture pattern helps us build an application that is scalable, manageable, and loosely coupled. This is very important for building cloud-native applications in order to get the most out of the cloud infrastructure and services. Please refer to the Microservices architecture overview section for more details.
GraalVM provides a high-performance runtime for JVM and non-JVM languages with a small footprint, which is critical for building scalable cloud-native applications. Refer to the Reviewing modern architectural requirements section in Chapter 3, Graal VM Architecture, and the Understanding how GraalVM...
