The platform team documented the ___ context for each microservice to clarify team boundaries and responsibilities.
Bounded context is the Domain-Driven Design collocation for the explicit boundary within which a microservice and its team operate. 'Domain context' is informal DDD language; 'service context' is vague; 'ownership context' is not a standard term. 'Bounded context' is the precise DDD term used in microservice team ownership discussions.

Before the legacy service was decommissioned, the team needed to ___ all consumers to the new replacement service.
Migrate consumers is the standard collocation in service deprecation and microservice evolution. 'Redirect' is for HTTP routing; 'switch' is informal; 'move consumers' is casual. 'Migrate consumers' is the precise technical term for moving downstream users from an old service contract to a new one.

The team posted a ___ notice six months before the API endpoint was scheduled to be shut down.
Deprecation notice is the standard API and microservice lifecycle collocation. 'Shutdown notice' is more dramatic; 'removal notice' is less formal; 'end-of-life notice' is used in hardware and enterprise software. 'Deprecation notice' is the universal API term for signaling that a feature will be removed in a future version.

We use a service mesh to ___ traffic between microservices and implement circuit breakers automatically.
Route traffic is the technical network collocation for directing requests through a service mesh. 'Manage traffic' is broader; 'control traffic' implies throttling; 'direct traffic' is less technical. 'Route traffic' is the standard networking term used in microservice, Kubernetes, and service mesh documentation.

Each team is expected to ___ an SLO for their microservice and page if it is breached.
Own an SLO is the natural collocation when emphasizing team accountability for service reliability. 'Define' is about creating the SLO; 'set' is about assigning the threshold; 'publish' is about communicating it. 'Own an SLO' specifically means the team is accountable for monitoring, maintaining, and improving it — the correct phrasing in service ownership language.
