Anyone building a scalable, robust application should consider a microservice architecture, that’s what it means to be “cloud native”. App performance is now joined at the hip with network infrastructure performance, the two are becoming more intertwined than ever. Blog discusses tips for a successful transition to cloud-native applications.
