Abstract
Technology is developing rapidly and is having widespread use. Practical in use, speed in processing data are some main factors that encourage the use of technology in many business processes. Professional certification process held by LSP (Lembaga Sertifikasi Profesi) P1 Polinema, is one of complex business process that needs information technology as a tool to run the business. Professional certificates given through the certification process are formal proof to recognize the skill level. This research develops a management information system to manage the certification process that is accessible through internet. If many information systems are generally built by using a monolithic approach, this research performs development based on microservices approach. If an application or system developed by using monolithic architecture, it is wrapped in a large package, so that when there is a change it will affect the other parts. It means that it is difficult to maintain and will affect the production process. The microservices architecture offers a slightly different approach, a software architecture concept that can be a solution to make large-scale software more organized and can quickly adapt to the development of existing business needs. To speed up the deployment and testing process utilizing continuous integration so that the development process is consistent and can check regularly to reduce errors obtained.
