MSA Design and Implementation - Prologue

What exactly is MSA?

Monolithic Architecture

This is a common architecture where one (mono) application handles all tasks for a service. It's structurally simple and powerful when developing small services.

Micro Service Architecture

This is an architecture where multiple small (Micro) applications are developed for a service. While structurally complex, it modularizes applications, resulting in low coupling and strong resilience to service failures, among other benefits that computer engineering modules naturally provide.

What I Want to Do

I want to directly design and implement 'MSA', which is still unfamiliar to me. Given my strong interest in DevOps, I want to try many new approaches while working on this project.
