🎞️ Why use a developer-ready platform microservice template | PlatformCon 2023

The aim for many companies who build a platform or run choreographed microservices is to reduce developer toil. Others want to impose uniformity across microservices behavior, to reduce support and development costs. While some aim to enable meaningful integration between multiple technologies. To address these needs, we present a low code/no code framework to develop microservices for an event-driven and choreographed-based cloud-native platform.
