Abstract

One of the prominent trends in present-day software construction has become the transition from monolithic architecture to more sophisticated microservices. As organizations look for ways to respond to power shifts within the marketplace, microservices allow for flexible, self-contained systems that can be deployed much quicker. The current paper will discuss the transition from monolith to microservices and the technical and organizational factors that come into play when accomplishing this process from a DevOps perspective. Microservices and DevOps are complementary because, when used together, they offer a coherent solution for improving the efficiency of application delivery by automating business workflows and processes and promoting collaboration between development and operations teams. This way, component coupling is effectively minimized in microservices, and such critical requirements for high-velocity organizations as scaling, fault isolation, and independent deployment are much easier to achieve. However, the shift demands a complex experiment with the conventional approaches to development and livestock for new tools, skills, and structures. The paper also examines microservices’ effect on system architecture, the associated risk, and the strategy implementation process. When looking closely at the actual case studies, one realizes that implementing DevOps and microservices firmly puts an organization at a competitive advantage regarding operations and adaptability to the business environment.
