Summary


In this chapter, you learned about the microservices architecture pattern. You should now be able to differentiate between a monolithic application and an application that is composed of microservices. You also learned about how Bluemix, as a cloud platform, provides the ability to seamlessly develop microservices-based applications. Going a step further, you can attempt to configure scaling policies on each of the applications separately and see it perform. Also, you will note that a failure to any one microservice does not bring down the other microservices. You can explore further and build various interesting and innovative microservices-based applications on Bluemix by leveraging the value-added services that Bluemix offers.

In the next chapter, we will look at another exciting set of services on Bluemix, these are services in Mobile category, which help with mobile application development.
