System Analysis Enhances Microservice Adoption and Effectiveness

Microservices is a specialization of service-oriented architectures (SOA) used to build flexible, independently deployable software systems. While first realized as part of SOA, microservices has becoming popular for building continuously deployed systems in DevOps environments. The benefit of distributing responsibilities of systems into smaller services is that it makes it easier to change and add functions and qualities to the system. It also allows the architecture of an individual service to emerge through continuous refactoring, reduces the need for up-front design and allows for releasing software early and continuously. However, microservices are not a silver bullet and can be extremely challenging to adopt. This presentation will address adoption challenges during traditional and cloud software development, examine implementations issues with across different types of systems and how to refactor legacy and monolithic applications. The paper will explain how architectural and system analysis is an enabling capability that improves visibility into existing and emerging systems, provides architectural governance resulting in accelerated adoption of microservices while improving the overall scalability and quality of the implementation.
