Microservices Deployment Cookbook

By: Vikram Murugesan

Overview of this book

This book will help any team or organization understand, deploy, and manage microservices at scale. It is driven by a sample application, helping you gradually build a complete microservice-based ecosystem. Rather than just focusing on writing a microservice, this book addresses various other microservice-related solutions: deployments, clustering, load balancing, logging, streaming, and monitoring. The initial chapters offer insights into how web and enterprise apps can be migrated to scalable microservices. Moving on, you’ll see how to Dockerize your application so that it is ready to be shipped and deployed. We will look at how to deploy microservices on Mesos and Marathon and will also deploy microservices on Kubernetes. Next, you will implement service discovery and load balancing for your microservices. We’ll also show you how to build asynchronous streaming systems using Kafka Streams and Apache Spark. Finally, we wind up by aggregating your logs in Kafka, creating your own metrics, and monitoring the metrics for the microservice.

Preface

Setting up a Mesos cluster using Docker


In this recipe, we will be learning how to orchestrate our first Mesos Cluster with Marathon framework configured. We will be orchestrating this cluster in our local machine using Docker and Docker Compose.

Getting ready

Now that we know what Mesos is and why we use it to deploy our microservice, let's orchestrate our first Mesos cluster. In order to do so, we first need to understand the building blocks of Mesos. Mesos is made of the following four components:

  • Zookeeper

  • Mesos master

  • Mesos slaves (also called as agents)

  • Mesos frameworks

Zookeeper

Zookeeper is an open source tool from Apache used for centralizing cluster information or other configurations. Mesos uses Zookeeper to store its cluster information. One use of Zookeeper in Mesos is to store information about various masters in the Mesos cluster. Mesos clusters ideally have more than one master to provide fault tolerance; this way, if one master goes down, another master takes charge. Another use...
