Answer from AI
Yes, splitting a large monolithic application into microservices is a common practice to improve scalability and maintainability. The process typically involves:
- Analyzing the current architecture and identifying business domains.
- Defining microservice boundaries based on functionality.
- Gradually migrating logic from the monolith to separate services with their own databases.
- Setting up communication between services via REST API, gRPC, or message queues.
- Implementing CI/CD for each microservice.
For example, in Python, one might create an authentication service, an order management service, and a notification service, each with its own codebase and infrastructure.
