# Microservices Patterns
|
|
|
|
Master microservices architecture patterns including service boundaries, inter-service communication, data management, and resilience patterns for building distributed systems.
|
|
|
|
## Use this skill when
|
|
|
|
- Decomposing monoliths into microservices
|
|
- Designing service boundaries and contracts
|
|
- Implementing inter-service communication
|
|
- Managing distributed data and transactions
|
|
- Building resilient distributed systems
|
|
- Implementing service discovery and load balancing
|
|
- Designing event-driven architectures
|
|
|
|
## Do not use this skill when
|
|
|
|
- The system is small enough for a modular monolith
|
|
- You need a quick prototype without distributed complexity
|
|
- There is no operational support for distributed systems
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
|
|
1. Identify domain boundaries and ownership for each service.
|
|
2. Define contracts, data ownership, and communication patterns.
|
|
3. Plan resilience, observability, and deployment strategy.
|
|
4. Provide migration steps and operational guardrails.
|
|
|
|
## Resources
|
|
|
|
- `resources/implementation-playbook.md` for detailed patterns and examples.
|
|
|
|
## Limitations
|
|
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
|
|
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
|
|
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
