The health check has been an important part of the IT industry. All kinds of software and hardware systems are being regularly checked for their health. It is the same with microservices. Services are running, but sometimes, they are unable to handle service requests due to various reasons. In these circumstances, the service monitoring system has to generate an alert and send it to the operational team to act upon in real time. The load balancer also understands any failed service instances and accordingly routes requests to the live services in order to guarantee business continuity. The service registry also has to take note of the failing instances so that any client service is given the access details of functioning services. The solution mechanism is to have a health check API endpoint for each of the services to perform various health check-ups...

Overview of this book
Enterprise Architecture (EA) is typically an aggregate of the business, application, data, and infrastructure architectures of any forward-looking enterprise. Due to constant changes and rising complexities in the business and technology landscapes, producing sophisticated architectures is on the rise. Architectural patterns are gaining a lot of attention these days.
The book is divided in three modules. You'll learn about the patterns associated with object-oriented, component-based, client-server, and cloud architectures. The second module covers Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) patterns and how they are architected using various tools and patterns. You will come across patterns for Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), Resource-Oriented Architecture (ROA), big data analytics architecture, and Microservices Architecture (MSA). The final module talks about advanced topics such as Docker containers, high performance, and reliable application architectures. The key takeaways include understanding what architectures are, why they're used, and how and where architecture, design, and integration patterns are being leveraged to build better and bigger systems.
