JavaScript Cloud Native Development Cookbook

By: John Gilbert

Overview of this book

Cloud-native development is a modern approach to building and running applications that leverages the merits of the cloud computing model. With cloud-native development, teams can deliver faster and in a more lean and agile manner as compared to traditional approaches. This recipe-based guide provides quick solutions for your cloud-native applications. Beginning with a brief introduction, JavaScript Cloud-Native Development Cookbook guides you in building and deploying serverless, event-driven, cloud-native microservices on AWS with Node.js. You'll then move on to the fundamental patterns of developing autonomous cloud-native services and understand the tools and techniques involved in creating globally scalable, highly available, and resilient cloud-native applications. The book also covers multi-regional deployments and leveraging the edge of the cloud to maximize responsiveness, resilience, and elasticity. In the latter chapters you'll explore techniques for building fully automated, continuous deployment pipelines and gain insights into polyglot cloud-native development on popular cloud platforms such as Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). By the end of the book, you'll be able to apply these skills to build powerful cloud-native solutions.

Introduction

In Chapter 1, Getting Started with Cloud-Native, we began our journey to understand why cloud-native is lean and autonomous. We focused on recipes that demonstrate how leveraging fully managed cloud services empower self-sufficient, full-stack teams to rapidly and continuously deliver innovation with confidence. In Chapter 2, Applying the Event Sourcing and CQRS Patterns, we worked through recipes that showcase how these patterns establish the bulkheads that enable the creation of autonomous services.

In this chapter, we bring all these foundational pieces together with recipes for implementing autonomous service patterns. In my book, Cloud Native Development Patterns and Best Practices, I discuss various approaches for decomposing a cloud-native system into bound, isolated, and autonomous services.

Every service should certainly have a bounded context and a single...
