NexQloud Knowledge Base

Microservices architecture delivers agility and scalability—but it also introduces complexity. To run microservices at scale, you need a cloud-native platform that handles the orchestration, connectivity, security, and visibility of a distributed system. These are the foundational components of a modern microservices ecosystem:

Key Components & How NexQloud Supports Them

• Containers‍ Technologies
  like Docker enable each microservice to be packaged with its dependencies, ensuring consistency across environments. NexQloud is container-native and optimized for OCI-compliant workloads—making containerized deployment simple, portable, and scalable across decentralized infrastructure.
• Orchestration (Kubernetes)‍
  NexQloud provides managed, Kubernetes-native orchestration that automates the deployment, scaling, and healing of microservices. Built-in service discovery, load balancing, and container lifecycle management ensure that applications remain resilient—even as they evolve rapidly.
• API Gateways‍
  NexQloud supports seamless integration with popular API gateway tools (e.g., Kong, Ambassador) and provides built-in routing capabilities to direct requests across microservices securely and efficiently. This enables granular traffic control, authentication, and rate limiting from a unified access point.
• Observability‍
  Understanding what's happening across a distributed system is critical. NexQloud integrates with leading observability tools (like Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) to deliver real-time monitoring, logging, and distributed tracing—so you can detect, debug, and resolve issues faster.
• Service Mesh‍
  For complex deployments, NexQloud supports service mesh frameworks like Istio to manage inter-service communication. This adds powerful capabilities like mutual TLS, fine-grained traffic control, retries, circuit breaking, and policy enforcement—without modifying your application code.
• The NexQloud Advantage‍
  NexQloud brings these components together into a cohesive, production-ready platform. By decentralizing the infrastructure while standardizing the developer experience, we give teams everything they need to deploy microservices confidently—without being bogged down by operational overhead or vendor lock-in.
