**TOPIC ABSTRACT**
***Six Secrets to Succeeding with Microservices***
Microservices architecture has become a buzzword in the tech industry, promising unparalleled agility, scalability, and resilience. Yet, according to Gartner, more than 90% of organizations attempting to adopt microservices will fail. How can you ensure you're part of the successful 10%?

Success begins with looking beyond the superficial topology and understanding the unique demands this architectural style places on the teams, the organization, and the environment. These demands must be balanced against the current business needs and organizational realities while maintaining a clear and pragmatic path for incremental evolution.

In this session, Michael will share some real-world examples, practical insights, and proven techniques to balance both the power and complexities of microservices. Whether you're considering adopting microservices or already on the journey and facing challenges, this session will equip you with the knowledge and tools to succeed.
