Overview of this book

In the last few years or so, microservices have achieved the rock star status and right now are one of the most tangible solutions in enterprises to make quick, effective, and scalable applications. The apparent rise of Typescript and long evolution from ES5 to ES6 has seen lots of big companies move to ES6 stack. If you want to learn how to leverage the power of microservices to build robust architecture using reactive programming and Typescript in Node.js, then this book is for you. Typescript Microservices is an end-to-end guide that shows you the implementation of microservices from scratch; right from starting the project to hardening and securing your services. We will begin with a brief introduction to microservices before learning to break your monolith applications into microservices. From here, you will learn reactive programming patterns and how to build APIs for microservices. The next set of topics will take you through the microservice architecture with TypeScript and communication between services. Further, you will learn to test and deploy your TypeScript microservices using the latest tools and implement continuous integration. Finally, you will learn to secure and harden your microservice. By the end of the book, you will be able to build production-ready, scalable, and maintainable microservices using Node.js and Typescript.

Circuit breakers and its role


In the practical world, errors do occur. Services can timeout, become unreachable, or take longer to complete. Being a distributed system, the entire system should not go down. The circuit breaker is the solution to this problem and it is a very important component in API Gateway.

The pattern essentially works in two states. If the circuit is closed, everything is normal, the request is dispatched to the destination, the response is received. But if there are errors or timeouts the circuit is open which means that route is not available as of now, we need to go a different route or way to achieve the service request. To achieve this functionality, Netflix has open sourced their project—Hystrix. This is, however, the Node.js version of the same: https://www.npmjs.com/package/hystrixjs (it's not official from Netflix, but rather an open source project). It even has the Hystrix dashboard for monitoring purposes. According to Hystrix's library, it has the following...
