Microservices are small, but they offer big value. A microservice is a
very small piece of a larger system that can be coded by one developer
within one iteration. Microservices can be added and removed
individually, new developers can be immediately productive, and
legacy code is easily replaced. Developers are no longer hampered by
the communication and coordination overhead caused by monolithic
systems. Savvy businesses are discovering that software development
productivity can be greatly enhanced with the right engineering
approach that enables even junior developers to double their
productivity, while reducing delivery risk.
The Tao of Microservices presents readers with the path to
understanding how to apply microservices architecture in their realworld
projects. This high-level book offers a conceptual view of
microservice architectures, along with core concepts and their
application. It also includes a detailed case study for the nodezoo.com
system, including all source code and documentation. By the end of the
book, readers will have explored in depth the key ideas of the
microservice architecture and will be able to design, analyze and
implement systems based on this architecture.
Key Features:
• Key principles of the microservice architecture
• Applying these principles to real-world projects
• Implementing large-scale systems
• Detailed case study
AUDIENCE
This book is for developers, architects, or managers who want to deliver
faster, meet changing business requirements, and build scalable and robust
systems.
