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.

Understanding the current application status


Right now, all microservices in our news portal have already been written. With each microservice, we're performing the expected task and are ready to make them work as a single application in a scalable way with resilience and good performance.

For the consumers of our application, there is no real awareness of everything that has been used, but we must be fully aware of how all the links of the software connect and which are the critical points in our application that we need to pay attention to.

In order to have this view, we have to understand each part of the application, with a macro and micro view of the software, almost at the same time. We will divide the application, so that we understand everything that has been developed, into three large blocks:

  • The public facing layer
  • The internal layer
  • General tools

This will cover all the general concepts applied as a solution to the microservices architecture, which is what we are using. The following...
