[{'@type': 'Question', 'name': "What's the difference between monolithic and microservices architecture?", 'acceptedAnswer': {'@type': 'Answer', 'text': '<p>A monolithic architecture is a traditional software development model that uses one code base to perform multiple business functions. All the software components in a monolithic system are interdependent due to the data exchange mechanisms within the system. It’s restrictive and time-consuming to modify monolithic architecture as small changes impact large areas of the code base. In contrast, microservices are an architectural approach that composes software into small independent components or services. Each service performs a single function and communicates with other services through a well-defined interface. Because they run independently, you can update, modify, deploy, or scale each service as required.</p> \n<p><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/microservices/" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline">Read about microservices »</a></p>'}}, {'@type': 'Question', 'name': 'Key differences: monolithic vs. microservices ', 'acceptedAnswer': {'@type': 'Answer', 'text': '<p>Monolithic applications typically consist of a client-side UI, a database, and a server-side application. Developers build all of these modules on a single code base.</p> \n<p>On the other hand, in a distributed architecture, each microservice works to accomplish a single feature or business logic. Instead of exchanging data within the same code base, microservices communicate with an API.</p> \n<p><img alt="" src="https://d1.awsstatic.com/Developer%20Marketing/containers/monolith_1-monolith-microservices.70b547e30e30b013051d58a93a6e35e77408a2a8.png"></p> \n<p>Next, we discuss more differences between the two.</p> \n<p><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/what-is/api/" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline">Read about APIs »</a></p> \n<h3><strong>Development process</strong></h3> \n<p>Monolithic applications are easier to start with, as not much up-front planning is required. You can get started and keep adding code modules as needed. However, the application can become complex and challenging to update or change over time.</p> \n<p>A microservice architecture requires more planning and design before starting. Developers must identify different functions that can work independently and plan consistent APIs. However, the initial coordination makes code maintenance much more efficient. You can make changes and find bugs faster. Code reusability also increases over time.</p> \n<h3><strong>Deployment</strong></h3> \n<p>Deploying monolithic applications is more straightforward than deploying microservices. Developers install the entire application code base and dependencies in a single environment. </p> \n<p>In contrast, deploying microservice-based applications is more complex, as each microservice is an independently deployable software package. Developers usually containerize microservices before deploying them. Containers package the code and related dependencies of the microservice for platform independence.</p> \n<p><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/what-is/containerization/" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline">Read about containerization »</a></p> \n<h3><strong>Debugging</strong></h3> \n<p>Debugging is a software process to identify coding errors that cause the application to behave erratically. When debugging monolith architecture, the developer can trace data movement or examine code behavior within the same programming environment. Meanwhile, identifying coding issues in a microservice architecture requires looking at multiple loosely coupled individual services. </p> \n<p>It can be more challenging to debug microservice applications because several developers might be responsible for many microservices. For instance, debugging may require coordinated tests, discussions, and feedback amongst team members, which takes more time and resources. </p> \n<h3><strong>Modifications</strong></h3> \n<p>A small change in one part of a monolithic application affects multiple software functions because of the tightly coupled coding. In addition, when developers introduce new changes to a monolithic application, they must retest and redeploy the entire system on the server.</p> \n<p>In contrast, the microservices approach allows flexibility. It’s easier to make changes to the application. Instead of modifying all the services, developers only change specific functions. They can also deploy particular services independently. Such an approach is helpful in the continuous deployment workflow where developers make frequent small changes without affecting the system\'s stability. </p> \n<h3><strong>Scaling</strong></h3> \n<p>Monolithic applications face several challenges as they scale. The monolithic architecture contains all functionalities within a single code base, so the entire application must be scaled as requirements change. For example, if the application\'s performance degrades because the communication function experiences a traffic surge, you must increase the compute resources to accommodate the entire monolithic application. This results in resource wastage because not all parts of the application are at peak capacity.</p> \n<p>Meanwhile, the microservices architecture supports distributed systems. Each software component receives its own computing resources in a distributed system. These resources can be scaled independently based on current capacities and predicted demands. So, for example, you can allocate more resources to a geographic location service instead of the whole system.</p>'}}, {'@type': 'Question', 'name': 'Operational impact: monolithic vs. microservices architecture', 'acceptedAnswer': {'@type': 'Answer', 'text': "<p>Microservices help you innovate faster, reduce risk, accelerate time to market, and decrease your total cost of ownership. Here’s a summary of operational benefits of microservice architecture.</p> \n<h3><strong>Innovate faster</strong></h3> \n<p>Monolithic architecture limits an organization's ability to introduce new business capabilities and technologies in existing applications. Developers cannot rebuild certain parts of the code base with new technological frameworks, which delays your organization in adopting modern technological trends.</p> \n<p>Meanwhile, microservices are independent software components that developers can build with different frameworks and software technologies. The loose coupling between microservices allows businesses to innovate certain components more quickly. </p> \n<h3><strong>Reduce risks</strong></h3> \n<p>Both monolithic and microservices applications experience code conflict, bugs, and unsuccessful updates. However, a monolithic application carries a more significant risk when developers release new updates, as the entire application presents a single point of failure. A minor error in the code base can cause the whole application to fail. Such incidents have the potential to cause severe service outages and affect all active users.</p> \n<p>As such, developers prefer building microservices applications to mitigate deployment risks. If a microservice fails, other microservices remain operational, which limits the impact on the application. Developers also use tools to preempt and fix issues impacting microservices to improve the application's recoverability. </p> \n<h3><strong>Accelerate time to market</strong></h3> \n<p>Software development effort for monolithic applications increases exponentially as code complexity grows. Eventually, developers have to spend more time to manage and cross-reference code files and libraries at the cost of building new features. When you develop with a rigid infrastructure, it creates delays to the anticipated timeline. </p> \n<p>Conversely, organizations with microservices expertise can build and release digital products faster. In a distributed software architecture, each developer focuses on a smaller chunk of code instead of a large one. When developers create a specific microservice, they don't need to understand how other microservices work. They only need to use the appropriate APIs, which are faster and easier to learn. </p> \n<h3><strong>Reduce total cost of ownership</strong></h3> \n<p>Both microservices and monolithic applications incur expenses during development, deployment, and maintenance. However, the microservice approach is more cost-effective in the long term.</p> \n<p>You can scale microservice applications horizontally by adding compute resources on demand. You only have to add resources for the individual service, not the entire application. To scale monolithic systems, companies must upgrade memory and processing power for the application as a whole, which is more expensive. </p> \n<p>Besides infrastructure costs, the expenses of maintaining monolithic applications also increase with evolving requirements. For example, sometimes developers must run legacy monolithic software on newer hardware. This requires custom knowledge, and developers must rebuild the application so that it remains operational. Meanwhile, microservices run independently of specific hardware and platforms, which saves organizations from costly upgrades.</p>"}}, {'@type': 'Question', 'name': 'When to use monolithic vs. microservices architecture ', 'acceptedAnswer': {'@type': 'Answer', 'text': '<p>Both monolithic and microservices architecture help developers to build applications with different approaches. It\'s important to understand that microservices don\'t reduce the complexity of an application. Instead, the microservices structure reveals underlying complexities and allows developers to build, manage, and scale large applications more efficiently.</p> \n<p>When you decide between developing a microservices or monolithic architecture, you can consider the following factors.</p> \n<h3><strong>Application size</strong></h3> \n<p>The monolithic approach is more suitable when designing a simple application or prototype. Because monolithic applications use a single code base and framework, developers can build the software without integrating multiple services. Microservice applications may require substantial time and design effort, which doesn\'t justify the cost and benefit of very small projects. </p> \n<p>Meanwhile, microservices architecture is better for building a complex system. It provides a robust programming foundation for your team and supports their ability to add more features flexibly.

Unlike monolithic applications, microservices development needs an understanding of cloud architecture, APIs, containerization, and other expertise specific to modern cloud applications. Furthermore, troubleshooting microservices may be challenging for developers new to the distributed architecture. </p> \n<h3><strong>Infrastructure</strong></h3> \n<p>A monolithic application runs on a single server, but microservices applications benefit more from the cloud environment. While it\'s possible to run microservices from a single server, developers typically host microservices with cloud service providers to help ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and high availability.</p> \n<p>You need the right infrastructure in place before you can start with microservices.

So, what are the benefits and challenges of microservices (when compared with the monolithic model)?\n\nBenefits\n\nDeployability: more agility to roll out new versions of a service due to shorter build+test+deploy cycles. Also, flexibility to employ service-specific security, replication, persistence, and monitoring configurations.\nReliability: a microservice fault affects that microservice alone and its consumers, whereas in the monolithic model a service fault may bring down the entire monolith.\nAvailability: rolling out a new version of a microservice requires little downtime, whereas rolling out a new version of a service in the monolith requires a typically slower restart of the entire monolith.\nScalability: each microservice can be scaled independently using pools, clusters, grids. The deployment characteristics make microservices a great match for the elasticity of the cloud.\nModifiability: more flexibility to use new frameworks, libraries, datasources, and other resources. Also, microservices are loosely-coupled, modular components only accessible via their contracts, and hence less prone to turn into a big ball of mud.\nManagement: the application development effort is divided across teams that are smaller and work more independently.\nDesign autonomy: the team has freedom to employ different technologies, frameworks, and patterns to design and implement each microservice, and can change and redeploy each microservice independently\n\nChallenges\n\nDeployability: there are far more deployment units, so there are more complex jobs, scripts, transfer areas, and config files to oversee for deployment. (For that reason, continuous delivery and DevOps are highly desirable for microservice projects.)\nPerformance: services more likely need to communicate over the network, whereas services within the monolith may benefit from local calls. (For that reason, the design should avoid "chatty" microservices.)\nModifiability: changes to the contract are more likely to impact consumers deployed elsewhere, whereas in the monolithic model consumers are more likely to be within the monolith and will be rolled out in lockstep with the service. Also, mechanisms to improve autonomy, such as eventual consistency and asynchronous calls, add complexity to microservices.\nTestability: integration tests are harder to setup and run because they may span different microservices on different runtime environments.\nManagement: the effort to manage operations increases because there are more runtime components, log files, and point-to-point interactions to oversee.\nMemory use: several classes and libraries are often replicated in each microservice bundle and the overall memory footprint increases.\nRuntime autonomy: in the monolith the overall business logic is collocated. With microservices the logic is spread across microservices. So, all else being equal, it\'s more likely that a microservice will interact with other microservices over the network--that interaction decreases autonomy. If the interaction between microservices involves changing data, the need for a transactional boundary further compromises autonomy. The good news is that to avoid runtime autonomy issues, we can employ techniques such as eventual consistency, event-driven architecture, CQRS, cache (data replication), and aligning microservices with DDD bounded contexts. These techniques are not inherent to microservices, but have been suggested by virtually every author I\'ve read.\n\nOnce we understand these tradeoffs, there\'s one more thing we need to know to answer the other question: which is better, microservices or monolith? We need to know the non-functional requirements (quality attribute requirements) of the application. Once you understand how important is performance vs scalability, for example, you can weigh the tradeoffs and make an educated design decision.', 'dateCreated': '2015-11-11T23:52:57', 'url': 'https://stackoverflow.com/a/33662057', 'author': {'@type': 'Person', 'name': 'Paulo Merson'}, 'commentCount': '3'}, 'suggestedAnswer': [{'@type': 'Answer', 'upvoteCount': '80', 'text': 'While I\'m relatively new to the microservices world, I\'ll try to answer your question as complete as possible.\n\nWhen you use the microservices architecture, you will have increased decoupling and separation of concerns. Since you are litteraly splitting up your application.\n\nThis results into that your codebase will be easier to manage (each application is independent of the other applications to stay up and running). Therefore, if you do this right, it will be easier in the future to add new features to your application. Whereas with a monolithic architecture, it might become a very hard thing to do if your application is big (and you can assume at some point in time it will be).\n\nAlso deploying the application is easier, since you are building the independent microservices separately and deploying them on separate servers. This means that you can build and deploy services whenever you like without having to rebuild the rest of your application.\n\nSince the different services are small and deployed separately, it\'s obvious easier to scale them, with the advantage that you can scale specific services of your application (with a monolithic you scale the complete "thing", even if it\'s just a specific part within the application that is getting an excessive load).\n\nHowever, for applications that are not intended to become too big to manage in the future. It is better to keep it at the monolithic architecture. Since the microservices architecture has some serious difficulties involved. I stated that it is easier to deploy microservices, but this is only true in comparison with big monoliths. Using microservices you have the added complexity of distributing the services to different servers at different locations and you need to find a way to manage all of that. Building microservices will help you in the long-run if your application gets big, but for smaller applications, it is just easier to stay monolithic.', 'dateCreated': '2015-10-09T15:55:08', 'url': 'https://stackoverflow.com/a/33042544', 'author': {'@type': 'Person', 'name': 'Kaj'}, 'commentCount': '4'}, {'@type': 'Answer', 'upvoteCount': '12', 'text': "@Luxo is spot on. I'd just like to offer a slight variation and bring about the organizational perspective of it. Not only does microservices allow the applications to be decoupled but it may also help on an organizational level. The organization for example would be able to divide into multiple teams where each may develop on a set of microservices that the team may provide.\n\nFor example, in larger shops like Amazon, you might have a personalization team, ecommerce team, infrastructure services team, etc. If you'd like to get into microservices, Amazon is a very good example of it. Jeff Bezos made it a mandate for teams to communicate to another team's services if they needed access to a shared functionality. See here for a brief description.\n\nIn addition, engineers from Etsy and Netflix also had a small debate back in the day of microservices vs monolith on Twitter. The debate is a little less technical but can offer a few insights as well.", 'dateCreated': '2015-10-12T00:48:54', 'url': 'https://stackoverflow.com/a/33071719', 'author': {'@type': 'Person', 'name': 'Will C'}, 'commentCount': ''}]}
