Microservices for UK banks, fintechs and regulated firms
In short
Right-sized services with clear ownership, contracts and operational maturity. You need it when a monolith is slowing teams down — and only then. Service blueprint, platform setup, observability and team operating model.
What microservices actually is
Right-sized services with clear ownership, contracts and operational maturity.
When you need it
When a monolith is slowing teams down — and only then.
What Forth delivers
Service blueprint, platform setup, observability and team operating model.
The pitfall we don't repeat
Splitting too early and shipping a distributed monolith with twice the operational cost.
How we engage
Fixed-scope discovery, a 30-day pilot against a real workload, and a continuation engagement with named UK-based engineers. Every artefact is version-controlled and ready for second-line review.
Frequently asked questions
Do you deliver microservices as a managed service?
Yes. We can run microservices as a one-off engagement, as part of a programme, or as a continuous managed service with monthly reporting.
Can you work alongside our in-house team?
Yes — most engagements augment an existing team. We work to your tooling, your standards and your release process, not ours.
What evidence do you produce for our auditors?
Every engagement produces traceable evidence: scenarios mapped to requirements or controls, run logs, defect history and a sign-off pack your second line can use without rework.
How fast can you start?
Most microservices engagements start within 2-4 weeks of a signed SoW, faster if there's an existing supplier framework in place.
