The diagram above shows a typical microservice architecture.
Key Components
•Load Balancer: This distributes incoming traffic across multiple backend services.
•CDN (Content Delivery Network): CDN is a group of geographically distributed servers that hold static content for faster delivery. The clients look for content in CDN first, then progress to backend services.
•API Gateway: This handles incoming requests and routes them to the relevant services. It talks to the identity provider and service discovery.
•Identity Provider: This handles authentication and authorization for users.
•Service Registry & Discovery: Microservice registration and discovery happen in this component, and the API gateway looks for relevant services in this component to talk to.
•Management: This component is responsible for monitoring the services.
•Microservices: Microservices are designed and deployed in different domains. Each domain has its database.
