Microservices is an implementation approach for distributed architectures for building flexible, independently deployable software systems. With that basic definition mind, I recommend you start with following articles to understand Apigee's perspective on Microservices & APIs -

As these articles allude to most of our customers put an API facade in front of their monolith legacy applications & also securely expose microservices. This enables modern mobile and web app developers to keep innovating despite the underlying transition to microservices. That said you can also use the node.js capabilities of the Edge platform to build new microservices by yourself and leverage the configurable policies to securely expose them, measure usage etc. Hopefully this comment becomes a starting point for your microservices journey with Edge!
