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.

Programming languages


Discussing programming languages is something that can be controversial, primarily because many developers tackle programming languages in a great hurry. However, programming languages should be seen as what they really are, a working tool. Every tool has a specific purpose and programming languages are no different.

It is just an analysis focused on our business, the news portal, which we will use to get to the point of how to select a language.

A big plus point for microservices is the heterogeneity of applications. In other words, it is not necessary to think of a single stack to apply to all business areas. We can thus define each microservice stack that applies, including when it comes to a programming language.

Basically, any programming language that meets the internet can be used in microservices. The difference is due to the requirements and domain boundaries that must be encoded. Some domain indicators can help us in this process.

If a microservice has strong...
