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?

AWS resources such as modernization acceleration, assessments, workshops, solution guidance, and immersion days enable manufacturers to derive the maximum possible benefits from their modernization efforts.
