This allows developers to build and deploy Liferay components as microservices, making it easier to manage and scale their applications.

These are just some of the new features and improvements in Liferay 7. If you are considering upgrading to Liferay 7, it is important to carefully evaluate your specific needs and requirements, and to consult with an expert in Liferay development.
