Microservice architectures allow you to independently develop, upgrade, version, and scale core areas of functionality in an overall system. Azure Container Apps provides the foundation for deploying microservices featuring:
- Independent scaling, versioning, and upgrades
- Service discovery
- Dapr integration
A Container Apps environment provides a security boundary around a group of container apps. A single container app typically represents a microservice, which is composed of container apps made up of one or more containers.
You can add Azure Functions and Azure Spring Apps to your Azure Container Apps environment.
Dapr integration
When you implement a system with microservices, function calls are distributed across the network. To support the distributed nature of microservices, you need to account for failures, retries, and time-outs. While Azure Container Apps features the building blocks for running microservices, integrating Dapr enhances the microservices programming model. Dapr offers more features such as observability, pub/sub, and service-to-service invocation with mutual TLS, retries, and more.
For more information on using Dapr, see Build microservices with Dapr.
