Microservices: Patterns and Applications Microservices are the next big thing in designing scalable, easy to maintain applications. This book will explain everything you need to know about Microservices to make your next project successful. You will learn: Microservice Patterns This book goes into great detail on all of the Microservice Architecture patterns including Monolithic Architecture Microservice Architecture Service Discovery Gateway / Proxy API Orchestrated API Service Registration CQRS and Event Sourcing Bulk Heads Circuit Breaker Message Broker The most important thing about Microservices is when and how to apply a pattern, along with explaining what choices you must make and why. Every system is different so it is vital to understand a lot of basics before designing and developing your own Microservices. From Monolithic to Microservice The basics here are how to decompose a Monolithic system into a Microservice and this book shows exactly how this process is completed. Service Oriented Architecture to Microservice A more common need is to migrate your system from a SOA based architecture to Microservices, there are many advantages and the process is not as straightforward as you would expect. New Microservices If you want to build a brand-new system and leverage the power of Microservices this book outlines the pitfalls, strategies and tactics needs to make this work for you. It is not as easy as it would seem and you will understand why after reading this book. Microservice Technologies You'll learn about what technologies you need to use and understand for successful Microservices. Virtualization Containers (Docker and Rocket) Databases Security (JSON Web Tokens) Logging Exceptions Caching Timeouts Scalability (CAP, Cube) Platform as a Service (PaaS) Cloud architecture Technology agnostic Why Microservices? Isn't this just the latest buzz word? While Microservices may be a recent trend and is gaining traction across the industry as a silver-bullet. It is not a silver-bullet. In this book you will learn important reasons why you cannot treat Microservices or any technology or technique as a silver-bullet. There are tradeoffs and advnatages to every architectural decision, you will understand the details by reading this book. Most importantly you will understand how Microservices is what SOA had promised and never delivered. Author: Lucas Krause Lucas has been in the technology industry as a consultant, contractor, architect, engineer, and manager and understands and has used Microservices successfully to solve his client problems. Philosophy of Microservices You'll learn about what the philosophy of Microservices is and why this is important. It is critical to understand the philosophy as that is what makes Microservices work at so many other companies and solutions. If you are looking to gain an understanding of Microservices along with the patterns and application around the process to implementing them than, this is the book for you Ready to learn about Microservices?
