Lately, there has been a lot of fuss about the differences between these two types of architectures, or whether there is any difference at all. In order to delve deeper into this question that raised hundreds of debates, I will first briefly define both SOA and microservices architecture and their origins, and then we’ll compare them and see how we can best distinguish them.
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
Service Oriented Architecture is a software architecture where distinct components of the application provide services to other components via a communications protocol over a network. The communication can involve either simple data passing, or two or more services coordinating connecting services to each other. These distinct services carry out some small functions such as validating payment, creating a user account, or providing social log-in. https://goo.gl/JQKncJ #DataIntegration #ML
