This is an example project which demonstrates the use of microservices. Our backend is powered by 4 microservices, all of which happen to be written in Python using Flask.
- Movie Service: Provides information like movie ratings, title, etc.
- ShowTimes Service: Provides show times information.
- Booking Service: Provides booking information.
- Users Service: Provides movie suggestions for users by communicating with other services.
