Microservices architecture allows you to break down your application into smaller, loosely coupled services that can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. This project showcases a complete microservices-based system using Spring Boot and Spring Cloud.
- Spring Boot: Simplified development and deployment of microservices.
- Spring Cloud: Provides tools to quickly build some of the common patterns in distributed systems.
- Kubernetes: Container orchestration platform for deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications.
- Docker: Containerization of microservices to ensure consistency across different environments.
- Zipkin: Distributed tracing system for monitoring and troubleshooting microservices.
- RabbitMQ: Message broker for handling asynchronous communication between microservices.
- Micrometer: Metrics collection and monitoring for microservices using Prometheus, Grafana, etc.

The project is built around a microservices architecture, where each service is independently deployable and loosely coupled. Below is a high-level overview of the architecture:
- API Gateway: Acts as an entry point to the system, routing requests to appropriate services.
- Discovery Server (Eureka): Service registry for locating and managing microservices.
- Configuration Server: Centralized management of configuration properties.
- Microservices: Independently deployable services for handling different business functionalities.
- Message Broker (RabbitMQ): For inter-service communication.
- Tracing (Zipkin): For distributed tracing of requests across microservices.
- Monitoring (Micrometer): For gathering and visualizing application metrics.
