ServiceCIs
ServiceCIs, or Service Continuous Integration, refer to a set of practices and automation pipelines that apply continuous integration principles to individual services within a distributed or microservices architecture. The goal is to verify that changes to a service do not break its own functionality or its interactions with other services, and to provide fast feedback to development teams.
Core concepts include service-level builds, unit and integration tests scoped to the service, and contract testing
Pipelines generally include steps such as building and packaging, static analysis, unit tests, containerization, contract tests
Benefits of ServiceCIs include faster feedback on interface changes, better isolation of service failures, and improved
