Resumo

This study investigates microservices grouping within containers, exploring its impact on performance, resource utilization, and availability. Experiments using the Sock-Shop microservice benchmark tool across varying workloads revealed benefits in terms of optimizing performance, computational resources and improving availability in scenarios grouping loosely-coupled microservices. However, this approach can incur operational complexity and costs. Therefore, grouping microservices within containers offers potential advantages, but careful consideration is needed to balance benefits and challenges effectively. (AU)
