What are some common challenges faced when migrating from a monolith to microservices?
Migrating microservices requires great planning and effort. Some challenges faced in doing so may include:
Defining Service Boundaries: Making the decision on exactly how to break down monolithic applications into several Service Applications.
Data Migration and Management: Moving out from a single database instance to a distributed data management system.
Handling Communication and Network Latency: Making sure that services are able to communicate with each other seamlessly and dealing with any failure in the network.
Monitoring and Debugging: Deployment of strong monitoring and debugging techniques for a distributed system.
