This document describes Auto1's transition from a monolithic architecture to a microservices architecture. It discusses the original monolithic architecture's limitations around code duplication, shared databases, and difficulty with testing and deployments. It then outlines how Auto1 broke the monolith into over 150 microservices written in various languages. The rest of the document provides a "microservices cookbook" detailing best practices around service templates, communication patterns, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and other aspects of Auto1's microservices approach.
