Some examples of entities with common properties in a microservice architecture could include:

  1. User profiles: many microservices may require information about a user, such as email address or username. This information could be stored in a user profile entity that is shared by multiple microservices.

  2. Orders: a typical e-commerce application may have multiple microservices that need access to an order entity, which contains information such as customer details, product details, and purchase history.

  3. Products: similar to orders, many microservices in an e-commerce application may need access to a product entity that stores information about a particular product, such as its name, description, and price.

  4. Accounts: when building a financial application, multiple microservices may need access to an account entity that contains information about the account holder, transaction history, and current balance.

  5. Messages: when building a messaging application, multiple microservices may need access to a message entity that includes information such as the sender, recipient, content, and timestamp.
