Design and Implementation of Microservices

Microservices Architecture is a concept that aims to decouple a solution by decomposing functionality into discrete services. Microservice architectures can lead to easily changeable, maintainable systems that can be more secure, performant and stable.

In this workshop, you will discover a consistent and reinforcing set of tools and practices rooted in the philosophy of small and simple; this can help you move towards a microservice architecture. Microservices are typically small systems, with single responsibilities, communicating via the web's uniform interface, installed as well-behaved operating system services. However, with these finer-grained systems come new sources of complexity.

What you will learn
During this workshop, you will understand in depth what the benefits are of finer-grained architectures, how to break apart your existing monolithic applications, and the practical concerns of managing these systems. We will discuss how to ensure your systems can be more stable, how to handle security and the additional complexity of monitoring and deployment.

We will cover the following topics:

Who should attend
Developers, architects, technical leaders, operations engineers and anybody interested in the design and architecture of services and components.
