Design Microservices Architecture with Patterns and Principles - Challenges of Microservices Architecture

The video tutorial discusses the advantages and challenges of microservice architectures. It highlights the complexity of managing multiple services, communication issues, network problems, and latency. The tutorial also covers development and testing challenges, data integrity, deployment difficulties, and the importance of logging, monitoring, and debugging. Despite these challenges, many organizations are adopting microservices to leverage their benefits.

What is a primary challenge when managing multiple microservices?

• Increasing the number of services

• Simplifying the system

• Reducing the number of services

• Managing communication between services

How can network latency issues be mitigated in microservices?

• By using synchronous communication

• By reducing the number of services

• By increasing the number of API calls

• By implementing asynchronous communication patterns

Why is testing more challenging in microservices compared to monolithic applications?

• Due to the simplicity of microservices

• Because microservices are easier to test

• Because microservices have fewer dependencies

• Due to the complexity of end-to-end processes

What is a common challenge related to data in microservices?

• Data simplicity

• Data redundancy

• Data consistency

• Data minimization

What is essential for managing distributed systems in microservices?

• Decentralized logging

• Centralized logging and monitoring

• Manual monitoring

• Local logging only
