A microservice architecture is a way of organizing software applications into small, independent services that communicate with each other through lightweight protocols. This allows teams to develop and deploy their services independently, reducing dependencies and allowing for faster growth and easier use of off-the-shelf services. However, maintaining the decoupling requires careful design of interfaces and potentially having multiple versions of the same service.
