What is MSF4J?

A lightweight, high performance framework for building microservices in Java

Vision for MSF4J Lightweight & fast runtime

Use Java annotations as a way of defining microservices APIs as well as metrics

Support well known & widely used methods such as JAXRS annotations

Provide simple ways to develop & deploy microservices

Vision for MSF4J Built-in Metrics & Analytics APIs with out of the box

integration with WSO2 Data Analytics Server (DAS)

To be used in the WSO2 platform as a way of replacing all admin services as well as defining other microservices for inter-component interactions
