Enterprise architectures are often an amalgamation of many complex systems that often have overlapping & redundant functions. These enterprise architectures are constantly looking for a way to improve efficiency, scalability & reduce redundancies. The micro services architecture was developed to address many of these concerns if implemented correctly. In this months meetup we will cover the definition & structure of a micro services based architecture. We will discuss the components of the architecture, how it addresses the needs of an enterprise architecture as well as potential pitfalls.

Our presenter will be Saleem Mir an Architect at Sapient Consulting.
