One of the hardest things about microservices is getting started. Many teams have found themselves building features into an ever-growing, hard-to-manage monolithic code base and don't know how to start breaking it apart into more manageable, separately deployable services. The recipes in this chapter will explain how to make the transition from monolith to microservices. Many of the recipes will involve no code whatsoever; instead, they will be focused on architectural design and how best to structure teams to work on microservices.
You'll learn how to begin moving from a single monolithic code base to suites of microservices. You'll also learn how to manage some of the initial challenges when you begin to develop features using this new architectural style.
