You are one click away from learning how to leverage the power of microservices to design, build, deploy, and maintain scalable and maintainable applications with ease!

They say breaking big tasks into small, simple, and doable tasks is the secret to getting stuff done fast.

In the tech world, nothing represents this concept of breaking big tasks/goals/projects into small, bit sized tasks (modular components/services) that can be done by multiple people and teams than macroservices.

And the truth is, microservice technologies are evolving very fast, with distributed systems becoming more fine-grained in the last decade, shifting from monolithic applications to self-contained microservices.

However, while microservices are indeed great for designing, building, deploying, maintaining, and scaling complex applications fast, these systems can be challenging to understand and put together to work as efficiently as expected.

If you are new to the whole concept of microservices, I know you are probably wondering....

• So, what are the benefits of using microservices?
• Why should you use microservices/what makes them so special?
• How can you use microservices security patterns in the real world?
• How can you design and develop microservices that function properly?
• How do you troubleshoot everything?
• And how can you apply the most modern techniques around messaging technologies and to overcome inter-service communication problems?

If you have any of these and any other related questions, this book is for you so keep listening, as this detailed yet simple guide will show you the grounding concepts while diving into current solutions for integrating, modeling, deploying, testing, and monitoring your own autonomous services.

More precisely, inside this book, you will learn:

• The basics of microservices, including what they are, the approach behind microservices, the evolution of microservices, and the features of microservices
• How communication works in microservices, including factors to consider for microservices architecture building
• The ins and outs of a service-oriented architecture, including the microservices drawbacks and the secret benefits of using microservices
• The architecture mindset on microservices
• How to design scalable backend infrastructures from scratch
• Everything you need to know about integration of microservices and the difference between orchestration and choreography
• The ins and out of representational state transfer, including the downsides to remainder over HTTP and the complexities of asynchronous architectures
• How to use DRY and perils of code reuse in a microservice
• All about versioning and how it is used in microservices
• The API composition, the UI fragment composition and backends for frontends
• How to test microservices, including solution examinations, end-to-end tests, trade-offs and implementing service tests
• Monitoring microservices, including the ins and outs of solitary service, single server
• Cascading failures and how to deal with them
• Everything you need to know
