If we trace a path that starts with Gutenberg\u2019s use of moveable type to Malcom McLean\u2019s invention of the shipping container, we start to recognize a very interesting pattern: Each new layer of abstraction and standardization creates value out of the resulting increases in scale and efficiency.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s digital innovators can trace a similar historical path that starts with mainframe computers and monolithic applications and then, step-by-step, reveals software\u2019s interchangeable parts until we arrive at today\u2019s cloud-based era of microservices and continuous integration.<\/p>\n

Microservices is an approach to building software that shifts away from large monolithic applications toward small, loosely coupled and composable autonomous pieces. The benefit of this abstraction is specialization, which drives down costs to develop and drives up agility and quality \u2014 while operating much more resilient systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
