Optimizing Microservices implementation for resilient operation

There is an understanding of what Microservices solution architecture and monolithic architecture bring to the table, it’s time to think about approaching the technical transition now. There are different strategies that can be adopted, but all of them share the same preparation tasks: identifying boundaries and improve testing.

Building Microservices are key for designing scalable, easy-to-maintain applications. Migrating current on-premise software systems to Microservices provides plethora of benefits including, the ability to have differentiated availability and scalability considerations for different parts of the system, the ability to utilize different technologies and avoid technology lock-in, reduced time-to-market, and better comprehensibility of the codebase. The principles of Microservice architecture are a great fit for dealing with a monolithic system, splitting it up into tiny manageable blocks and utilizing the advantages of Microservices implementation. Although various approaches exist to migrate a legacy system, it always depends on the motivation of leaving the legacy environment and how the cost and time constraints impact the migration move.

The most challenging aspects of moving from monolithic systems to Microservices are the organizational changes required, such as building services teams that own all aspects of their Microservices. This requires creating multi-disciplinary units which include developers, testers and operations staff, among others. Alternatively, more sophisticated teams can simply mandate that all new functionality must develop as a Microservice. The major challenge is to design and develop the integration between the existing system and the new cloud native Microservices architecture.

This webinar will help you understand how to implement Microservice-based systems from scratch. We will start by understanding the core concepts and framework, before focusing on the high-level design of large software projects. Additionally, you will introduce the best Microservices patterns, practices, and common Microservices design principles that will help you to understand how to troubleshoot and debug the issues faced during development. We’ll discuss how to move from monolithic application architecture to a Microservices-based architecture with its pros and cons and consider the technical aspects and learn common pitfalls to avoid.
