Martin Fowler - Microservices 

I love that he points out that asynchronicity increases complexity. I think this fact is often overlooked in software architecture decisions.

I built a project once where all the business logic was in modules, and each module communicated through a service which was injected at runtime. This meant I could deploy the entire codebase as a monolith, or just by changing the config files, deploy as independent services. This was done just by injecting a network based inter-module communication plugin rather than an in-memory option. Also the DB service was injected at runtime, so you could alter the config file and point each module at either the same DB or different ones, and also swap the DB drivers as well. Worked pretty well as I recall, and meant we weren't boxed into either architecture until later on down the line when we decided to deploy. Also meant the business logic could be tested independently of how the deployment was to be done.

Great.... What I see and understand after watching Martin Fowler is that many software development companies are migrating their applications to micro-services without skewing the whole context. Not with technical or sufficient discernment, then they do just by fashion. And when the decision is not technical enough, many of these projects go bad or even fail, today's developers are lazy, they do not improve, I see that if we do not have a team of seniors we must invest in the change of our culture before To move on.

thanks to Martin with a great explanation about micro services, especially when to use, where to use, how to use & not when to use.

A very precise and concise introduction to microservices. Thanks Martin Fowler.

It always delightful to listen Martin Fowler

Microservices are good in theory, but in practice there are many problems, i dont think there are many people who know how to do it right

Good explanation, Thumbs up!

Nice explanation!!!

Where I can get the slides of this presentation?

I feel like I could study under this guy.

Superlike

If someone reads about SOA principles as of today.. they would think Microservices are just another name for it... I think when SOA came out, companies implemented SOA using current technology at that time and it gave SOA a bad name...

Hi there, if i multiple services that they work independently ( will they still be called microservice)?

does microservice rise means that the end of soa is coming?

each service have different datastore, surely it will detoriate the app performance, because communication is happening over network, which is again a bottleneck.
