Microservice architecture has been mentioned since the beginning of the 21st century, but it has reached the peak of popularity only in our days. In modern product management, even stable, long-established projects are transferred to this architecture, and in new projects, they necessarily consider it as the basis for building, discarding options for a monolithic system, under the influence of new trends in the IT world. So why have microservices become widespread only now? Technological progress has made available key technologies, the absence of which greatly hindered the development and support of this architecture. In particular, CI/CD technologies and the evolution of the positions of developers and system administrators in the labor market in DevOps-engineers who replace a number of specialists. Also, a significant role in the popularity of microservices was played by the strong growth of Internet users and the degeneration of window applications. Now and in the future, microservices will remain in demand due to the already large number of projects based on this architecture.
