Record: `arch:microservices`
Kind: style
Layer: [Structural Core](https://banes-lab.com/records/layer/structural-core.md)
Severity: contextual
Scope: system, service, deployment
Canonical: https://banes-lab.com/ontology#arch-microservices

## Repair

- Refactored by: Split Service, [Own Data](https://banes-lab.com/records/lex/own-data.md), Add Events
- Detected by: deployment coupling, cross-service transactions
- Violated by: shared databases, synchronous service chains
- Measured by: deploy independence, coupling metrics
- Enforced by: service ownership, API contracts
