Conclusion
A microservice-based architecture helps overcome the limitations posed by traditional, monolithic MES. Building a microservice-based application has challenges, such as architectural complexities and operational overheads. To realize the full potential of microservice-based MES, we recommend exploring the following questions:
-
What is the limitation of the current architecture you are trying to solve?
-
Do you have enough expertise to make business and architectural decisions?
-
Do you have or plan to have a governance structure?
-
Do you have automation in place for testing and deployment?
-
Do you have a change management and training plan?
