The talk will start by reminding the definition of loose coupling and its paradigmatic realization in messaging. Next, it will be shown how loose coupling is realized by traditional Web Service technology as well as by REST Service technology. As examples, scalability, high availability, and stability will be presented as easy to achieve based on being loosely coupled. Finally, the talk will argue that micro-services as well as native-cloud services imply loose coupling.
