Q: List the differences between Monolithic, SOA, and Microservices Architecture

Answer 1

In Monolithic Architecture, all software components of the application are assembled and packed tightly.

SOA [Service Oriented Architecture] is a collection of services that communicate with each other through simple data passing or activity coordination.

Microservices Architecture is a collection of small functional modules. These functional modules are independently deployable, scalable, target specific business goals, and communicate with each other over standard protocols.
