Sometimes the infrastructure can fail, especially the network. It can cause some problems in microservices architecture because in general there are many connections between services. It means at runtime that the microservices depend on other microservices. Normally these connections are done using the REST APIs through the HTTP protocol.
It can cause a behavior called cascade failure; that is, when one part of the microservices system fails, it can trigger the other microservices failure, because of the dependencies. Let's illustrate this:
If Service Y fails, Service A and Service M potentially can fail ...
