Enabling Microservice Success

Microservices can be a very effective approach for delivering value to your organization and to your customers. If you get them right, microservices help you to move fast by making changes to small parts of your system hundreds of times a day. But if you get them wrong, microservices will just make everything more complicated. In this book, technical engineering leader Sarah Wells provides practical, in-depth advice for moving to microservices. Having built her first microservice architecture in 2013 for the Financial Times, Sarah discusses the approaches you need to take from the start and explains the potential problems most likely to trip you up. You'll also learn how to maintain the architecture as your systems mature while minimizing the time you spend on support and maintenance. With this book, you will: Learn the impact of microservices on software development patterns and practices Identify the organizational changes you need to make to successfully build and operate this architecture Determine the steps you must take before you move to microservices Understand the traps to avoid when you create a microservices architecture—and learn how to recover if you fall into one

Summary The Design of Web APIs is a practical, example-packed guide to crafting extraordinary web APIs. Author Arnaud Lauret demonstrates fantastic design principles and techniques you can apply to both public and private web APIs. About the technology An API frees developers to integrate with an application without knowing its code-level details. Whether you’re using established standards like REST and OpenAPI or more recent approaches like GraphQL or gRPC, mastering API design is a superskill. It will make your web-facing services easier to consume and your clients—internal and external—happier. About the book Drawing on author Arnaud Lauret's many years of API design experience, this book teaches you how to gather requirements, how to balance business and technical goals, and how to adopt a consumer-first mindset. It teaches effective practices using numerous interesting examples. What's inside Characteristics of a well-designed API User-oriented and real-world APIs Secure APIs by design Evolving, documenting, and reviewing API designs About the reader Written for developers with minimal experience building and consuming APIs. About the author A software architect with extensive experience in the banking industry, Arnaud Lauret has spent 10 years using, designing, and building APIs. He blogs under the name of API Handyman and has created the API Stylebook website.

Annotation Over the past 10 years, distributed systems have become more fine-grained. From the large multi-million line long monolithic applications, we are now seeing the benefits of smaller self-contained services. Rather than heavy-weight, hard to change Service Oriented Architectures, we are now seeing systems consisting of collaborating microservices. Easier to change, deploy, and if required retire, organizations which are in the right position to take advantage of them are yielding significant benefits. This book takes an holistic view of the things you need to be cognizant of in order to pull this off. It covers just enough understanding of technology, architecture, operations and organization to show you how to move towards finer-grained systems.
