In microservices architecture, which description accurately defines orchestration?
AMicroservices share a common database to synchronize their states.
BMicroservices independently emit events without a central coordinator.
CEach microservice directly calls every other microservice it depends on.
DA central service coordinates and directs interactions between microservices.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand orchestration
Orchestration involves a central controller managing the workflow among microservices.
Step 2: Evaluate options
A central service coordinates and directs interactions between microservices. correctly states this central coordination. Microservices independently emit events without a central coordinator. describes choreography. Each microservice directly calls every other microservice it depends on. is tightly coupled calls, not orchestration. Microservices share a common database to synchronize their states. is about shared databases, unrelated to orchestration.
Final Answer:
A -> Option D
Quick Check:
Central coordination defines orchestration [OK]
Quick Trick:Orchestration uses a central controller to manage services [OK]
Common Mistakes:
Confusing choreography with orchestration
Assuming direct calls between all services is orchestration
Thinking shared databases define orchestration
