1. Microservices architecture divides applications into small, independent components called microservices that can be developed, deployed and scaled independently.
2. This architecture aligns well with agile principles by allowing individual teams to focus on and deploy their microservice without coordination, enabling faster feedback and continuous delivery of working software.
3. By structuring the organization around business domains rather than technical components, microservices help drive organizational communication patterns that mirror the architecture, avoiding misalignment over time.
