Microservice Oriented Application Development

About a decade ago developers used to follow monolithic approach for developing application. There used to be a single large application containing millions of lines of code. And it would take hours just to build an application. Many people used to work together to build an application. If bug was found in any single line of code then we had to take down application. So other people's work too couldn't get out. So this would delay the release of an application. Now a days the concept of microservices came into picture. In this approach we divide single large monolithic application into multiple smaller chunks. This would reduce the build time from hours to seconds. Developers can work on these chunks independently. So it would enable them to release their code on their own pace. These microservices don't coordinate directly. Each microservice provide interface that can be used by others to get services. Now we need a platform to deploy these microservices. Therefore we wrap them into containers. Containers offer portability and it would take seconds to deploy the container. Docker is an opensource tool which provides a platform to build, deploy and run containers. For orchestration
