Best for

▸Decomposing Flask monoliths into independently deployable microservices with proper domain boundaries
▸Architecting inter-service communication patterns using REST APIs, message queues, and event-driven architectures
▸Implementing resilience patterns like circuit breakers, bulkheads, and timeout handling in Flask service meshes
▸Designing containerized Flask deployment pipelines with Docker, Kubernetes, and service discovery
▸Building observability infrastructure for distributed Flask applications with distributed tracing and metrics

What you'll get

●Service boundary analysis with DDD bounded contexts, recommended Flask application factory structure, and inter-service API contracts
●Complete containerization strategy with Dockerfile, Kubernetes manifests, and service discovery configuration for Flask microservices
●Resilience pattern implementation guide with circuit breaker code, retry logic, and distributed tracing instrumentation for production Flask services

Not designed for ↓

×Basic Flask web application development or single-service Flask tutorials
×Frontend microservices or client-side service decomposition strategies
×Non-Python microservices architectures (Java Spring Boot, Node.js, etc.)
×Database administration or data modeling unrelated to service boundaries

Expects

Current Flask application architecture details, team size, scale requirements, and specific microservices decomposition challenges or deployment targets.

Returns

Detailed service boundary recommendations, Flask application factory patterns, inter-service communication designs, containerization strategies, and production deployment architectures with resilience patterns.
