Hesitation between two microservice architectures
Hello, I'm wondering if there is a limit to the number of connections that can be made to the Gateway. Let's say I want to use sharding, I have 20 microservices, and each one needs to be able to listen and send events. Can each microservice create a connection to the Gateway, or is there a limit?
I have two architectures in mind. In solution A, a single microservice handles the Gateway connection, but in this case a message broker is required. In solution B, each microservice connects to the Gateway and does not depend on another microservice, however, I guess that in this solution, each microservice will have higher CPU/RAM usage.
You can see the schemas of the two solutions in the image.
If you have any other important information, it could help me to decide. Thank you.
