Microservices

• Each microservice should be developed and deployed independently.
• There should be no dependency between your microservice, or any other microservice or application, if possible.
• Your microservice should be deployable all by itself.
• Each microservice should be its own solution/codebase.
• Each microservice should have its own data sources. Now, while this is the accepted best practice, it doesn't always hold up. If your project is a green-field project, perhaps you will get lucky, otherwise, we usually have data sources developed and in use long before we get to this project. Although a best practice, it is often not applicable for various reasons.
• Each microservice should communicate with other microservices via an asynchronous, event-driven, message-based approach to reduce inter-service dependencies.
• The change of one microservice should not break another....
