Fail Fast means stopping quickly on errors, while Fail Safe ensures safety in failures.

Graceful degradation allows apps to function partially during service failures.

Fallbacks allow systems to handle failures safely and maintain user experience.

A timeout indicates a deadline was exceeded, not necessarily a failure.

Database per Service ensures each microservice owns its data, reducing dependencies.

Choosing the right boundaries for microservices is crucial for effective architecture.

Microservices and modular monoliths differ mainly in deployment and communication methods.

Microservices are useful when you need independent scaling, deployment, and clear boundaries in software design.

You can replay Kafka events safely by separating live and replay processes.

An API Gateway simplifies client access to backend services in microservices.

Monolithic and microservices architectures each have unique advantages and challenges for software development.
