What are Microservices?

The video discusses the shift from traditional monolithic applications to microservices. It explains that while monolithic applications are built as a single cohesive unit, microservices break the application into separate components. This approach offers advantages such as increased resilience, as failure in one component doesn't affect the entire system. However, microservices also present challenges, including increased complexity in management. The video highlights the importance of agile and DevOps mindsets in handling microservices, especially as cloud computing and application containers become more prevalent.
