I just want to check my understanding of a microservice architecture.

I have 5 different apps that I'm building and running in their own Dockerfile. Each docker file first builds that app before pulling the Apache httpd image and moving the built files over to its server.

This means that all 5 apps have separate httpd servers serving that application at different urls. Each app communicates with the other, getting the necessary resources over http.

I'm looking to deploy this in Kubernetes.

Is it normal to have a server per service? or would you create a separate server container and copy all the files over to that one.

CodePudding user response：

Yes it is normal, each microservice should have its own web server, so that they run in isolation and can be scaled individually.
