Production-Ready Microservices: Building Standardized Systems Across an Engineering Organization

Production-Ready Microservices: Building Standardized Systems Across an Engineering Organization

<div>                 <div>One of the biggest challenges for organizations that have adopted microservice architecture is the lack of architectural, operational, and organizational standardization. After splitting a monolithic application or building a microservice ecosystem from scratch, many engineers are left wondering what's next. In this practical book, author Susan Fowler presents a set of microservice standards in depth, drawing from her experience standardizing over a thousand microservices at Uber. You'll learn how to design microservices that are stable, reliable, scalable, fault tolerant, performant, monitored, documented, and prepared for any catastrophe.<br />Explore production-readiness standards, including:<br /><ul><li><b>Stability and Reliability:</b> develop, deploy, introduce, and deprecate microservices; protect against dependency failures</li><li><b>Scalability and Performance:</b> learn essential components for achieving greater microservice efficiency</li><li><b>Fault Tolerance and Catastrophe Preparedness:</b> ensure availability by actively pushing microservices to fail in real time</li><li><b>Monitoring:</b> learn how to monitor, log, and display key metrics; establish alerting and on-call procedures</li><li><b>Documentation and Understanding:</b> mitigate tradeoffs that come with microservice adoption, including organizational sprawl and technical debt</li></ul></div></div>
