Resumo(s)

With IT landscapes becoming bigger and more complex, organisations are looking to move to an architectural pattern that is agile in nature, secure by default, and easily scalable. Therefore, transitioning existing systems to microservices becomes inevitable at some point. However, redesigning an architecture from scratch is no simple undertaking and requires a thorough understanding of the current topology, involved stakeholders, and possible pitfalls. Thus, it is necessary to create a strong foundation that guides through the organisational and technical aspects involved in such a fundamental transformation. Using the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, this paper proposes an iterative framework which consists of eight phases that guide an organisation through the migration to microservices. The presented guidelines provide a handbook which can be consulted and individually adapted during the transformational process. Ultimately, this paper introduces a high-level approach that guarantees a smooth transition away from traditional monolithic systems to a more modern and flexible microservices architecture.
