Abstract

The modernisation of traditional rigid applications in the manufacturing sector is vital for achieving operational efficiency, scalability, and cost optimization. This research paper studies the adoption of microservices-driven architectures, leveraging Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) that facilitate cloud native transformation in manufacturing enterprises. By deconstructing rigid application into loosely coupled microservices, organizations can enhance agility, improve system resilience, and streamline continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) workflows.
