Was microservices architecture used when creating the database?

Microservices architecture is typically applied to the development of applications and services, rather than directly to the database. However, when designing a database for a microservices system, approaches are often used where each microservice owns its own database (Database per Service). This ensures independence, scalability, and data isolation.

Example:

• Order service stores data in one database.
• User service in another.

Thus, microservices architecture influences the organization of data and interaction between databases, but the database itself is not built as a microservice.
