Shobana Radhakrishnan discusses how Mindflash manages service integration and implements a microservices architecture to achieve high uptime and continuous deployment in a lean startup. Mindflash relies on many external services and has evolved its deployment process from monthly major releases with fallouts to near-continuous deployment with high automation and alignment between test and production environments. Mindflash implements a microservices architecture with independent services communicating through APIs to improve scalability, deployment speed, and allow incremental improvements. This approach helps Mindflash continuously upgrade services while maintaining high performance and uptime.
