Description
Deploy a multi-service system locally using Docker and Docker Compose.
Instructions
In this assignment, you will design, containerize, and run a complete microservice-based system locally using Docker and Docker Compose. You are expected to create the code and configuration yourself, starting from an empty solution.
· Requirements:
✅ Create three services: API Gateway, Data Service, AI Service
✅ Each service must expose a simple HTTP endpoint (for example: /api/health)
✅ Each service must have its own Dockerfile
✅ Services must communicate over an internal Docker network
✅ All services must be started using docker compose
· What to implement:
▶️ API Gateway that receives requests and calls the other services
▶️ Data Service that responds with a simple text or status
▶️ AI Service that responds with a simple text or status
· What to submit:
▶️ Source code of all services
▶️ Dockerfiles and docker-compose.yml
▶️ Screenshots showing all containers running
▶️ Screenshot of successful HTTP responses via the Gateway
· Notes:
✅ Focus on deployment and service communication, not business logic.
✅ Minimal implementation is sufficient.

Verification (self-check)
✅ Create three services: API Gateway, Data Service, and AI Service.
▶️ Dockerize each service using a Dockerfile.
▶️ Run all services together using Docker Compose.
▶️ Upload screenshots proving that all services are running and responding via the Gateway.
