The benefits of microservices architecture come at a cost. Unless you have the proper infrastructure to support microservices development and deployment with a CI/CD pipeline, chances are that you’ll more than likely fail to meet your objectives. Let us reiterate: one key objective of microservices architecture is the speed to production. With hundreds of microservices, management becomes a nightmare unless you have the right tools for automation. Packaging, distribution, and testing of microservices in various environments before getting into production in an efficient, less error-prone way is important.
