Many companies build their custom software services using monolithic architectures. This approach has advantages: monolithic systems are relatively simple to design and deploy - at least, at first. However it can become hard to maintain developer productivity and deployment velocity as applications grow more complex, leading to systems that are expensive and time-consuming to change and risky to deploy.

This paper shows how to re-architect your applications to a cloud-native paradigm that allows you to accelerate delivery of new features even as you grow your teams, while also improving software quality and achieving higher levels of stability and availability.
