Answer from AI
Yes, I have had to decompose monolithic services. Usually, the process begins with analyzing the current architecture and identifying business logic that can be separated into individual services. It's important to define the boundaries of contexts (bounded contexts) and minimize dependencies between modules.
An approximate approach:
- Identify key functional areas.
- Separate them into individual services with clearly defined APIs.
- Ensure communication between services via REST, gRPC, or messaging.
- Gradually transfer logic from the monolith to microservices, maintaining operability.
In Go, this is convenient due to modularity and support for microservice architecture.
