Can you describe a microservice architecture and discuss its advantages?

Even if you don't use the microservices architectural development methodology, you should still be able to describe what it is and discuss some of its advantages. If you prefer other methods, be prepared to discuss why you don't use this style and the advantages of the methodologies you use. Interviewers appreciate your ability to describe and defend your choices and confirm that you use the methodology they are inquiring about.

"Microservices architecture is a web development style which creates an application as a group of small autonomous services. Some of the advantages of using microservices include their compatibility with other web development technologies, including other development frameworks, libraries, and databases, and their ability to isolate faults, preventing them from crashing the entire site. They also can be deployed independently and in less time."
