Development

Microservices when they fit, and a straight answer when they do not.

Splitting a system into services solves real scaling and team problems, and creates new operational ones. We help you decide and, if it makes sense, get there in phases.

When it fits

Concrete problems, not trends.

Microservices are justified by concrete problems, not by trends. These are the usual ones:

  • Several teams work on the same system, and every release means coordinating all of them.
  • One part of the system takes far more load than the rest and needs to scale on its own.
  • A failure in a secondary module takes down the whole application.
  • Some parts change every week and others almost never, but everything ships together.
  • The system grew so large that nobody understands the whole, and every change feels risky.

What it includes

Split in phases, without a full rewrite.

  • Architecture assessment

    We review the system, the team, and operations. If a modular monolith solves the problem with less complexity, that is what we recommend.

  • Service boundaries

    Which service owns which data and business rules, and how services talk to each other.

  • Phased migration

    Services are extracted one at a time while the current system keeps running, with no full rewrite.

  • Independent deployment

    Containers, CI/CD, and environments so each service ships without dragging the others along.

  • Observability

    Logs, metrics, and traces across services, so you can tell where an operation that crossed several of them failed.

How we work

One service at a time.

  1. Assessment

    What hurts today, in which parts of the system, and for which teams.

  2. Decision

    Microservices, a modular monolith, or a mix, with the reasoning in writing.

  3. First service

    We extract the service with the most benefit and least risk to validate the approach.

  4. Gradual extraction

    The next services follow by priority, with the system still in operation.

  5. Operations

    Monitoring, alerts, and runbooks so your team can maintain the architecture.

What you get

An architecture your team can operate.

  • An architecture decision record with the alternatives considered.
  • A map of services, data ownership, and communication between them.
  • Services deployed with independent CI/CD pipelines.
  • Observability dashboards and configured alerts.
  • Runbooks for your engineering team.

FAQ

What people usually ask us.

Do you always recommend microservices?

No. For many teams, a well-structured monolith is easier to build, test, and operate. We recommend microservices only when the problem calls for them.

Do we have to rewrite our current system?

No. Migration happens piece by piece: the existing system keeps running while services are extracted, and the old parts are retired once nothing depends on them.

What changes for my team?

More autonomy to release and more responsibility for operations. That is why the engagement includes monitoring, runbooks, and support, not just code.
