Decomposition

This is one of the things microservices rely on when they are constructed. And now I am learning about these, (courtesy of IBM) I am very impressed with them.

This looks at any activity, such as a business process, observes all the things it is doing, in great detail, and turns each of these sub-activities into a microservice. Each with its own small team, that has complete control of its entire lifecycle.

You end up with many small teams, but they work together nicely,

People decide how all these little pieces fit together (how they talk to each other) and they do this to make life easier for other people,
