own strengths and use cases. The choice of database often depends on factors such as scalability
requirements, data structure complexity, performance needs, and the specific use case of the
application being developed.
Microservices
Microservices architecture in software development involves breaking down an application into smaller,
independent services that can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. Here are some
common names of microservices used in software development:

Search Service
Analytics Service
Image Processing Service
File Storage Service
Customer Service
Account Service
Social Media Integration Service
Workflow Service
These are just a few examples, and the specific microservices needed for an application will depend on
the functionality and requirements of the system. Each microservice typically focuses on a specific
domain or functionality and communicates with other microservices through well-defined APIs or
messaging systems.
Cloud Platforms
Here are some popular cloud platforms commonly used in software development:
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
