Enhanced Content

Definition

Building applications as small, independent services that work together. Like a restaurant where different stations handle appetizers, main courses, and desserts separately.

Real-World Example

Netflix uses microservices where separate teams handle user accounts, recommendations, video streaming, and payments independently.

Cloud Provider Equivalencies

These services allow developers to build and deploy microservices by providing serverless computing capabilities, enabling small, independent functions to run in response to events.
