1. Decompose the Application: Identify distinct business domains and split functionality into small, loosely coupled services.

2. Service Communication:

   • Use APIs (REST or GraphQL) for synchronous communication
   • Use messaging systems (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka) for asynchronous communication

3. Independent Data Stores: Each service manages its own database to ensure independence.

4. Service Discovery: Use a registry like Consul or Eureka to manage service locations dynamically.

5. Deployment:

   • Containerize services with Docker
   • Orchestrate using Kubernetes

6. Monitoring: Use tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or ELK Stack for observability and debugging.
