Microservice Patterns and Best Practices

By: Vinicius Feitosa Pacheco

Overview of this book

Microservices are a hot trend in the development world right now. Many enterprises have adopted this approach to achieve agility and the continuous delivery of applications to gain a competitive advantage. This book will take you through different design patterns at different stages of the microservice application development along with their best practices. Microservice Patterns and Best Practices starts with the learning of microservices key concepts and showing how to make the right choices while designing microservices. You will then move onto internal microservices application patterns, such as caching strategy, asynchronism, CQRS and event sourcing, circuit breaker, and bulkheads. As you progress, you'll learn the design patterns of microservices. The book will guide you on where to use the perfect design pattern at the application development stage and how to break monolithic application into microservices. You will also be taken through the best practices and patterns involved while testing, securing, and deploying your microservice application. At the end of the book, you will easily be able to create interoperable microservices, which are testable and prepared for optimum performance.

Pattern distribution


Throughout the book, we have worked with various patterns of communication between microservices. We applied almost all the mentioned patterns, and in the course of the development process, we were remodeling our code, modifying and adding patterns in our application.

We are currently applying the following patterns in the application:

  • Proxy microservice design pattern: This is applied using Nginx in the role of proxy. This pattern refers to the proxy for the OrchestratorNewsService, UsersService, and RecommendationService APIs.
  • Aggregator microservice design patternOrchestratorNewsService performs the role of aggregator for the FamousNewsService, SportsNewsService, and PoliticsNewsServicemicroservices. 
  • Branch microservice design pattern: This is the pattern that we have used to establish communication between UsersService and RecommendationService, because RecommendationService needs information synchronously from UsersService to finish the task it proposes.
  • Asynchronous...
