Microservice Architecture

Microservices: what does good look like?

architecture   architecting   microservice architecture  

The microservice architecture has become increasingly popular over the past decade. Its key benefits include significantly improving the developer experience and accelerating software delivery. Sadly, however, microservices have often been widely misunderstood and used inappropriately. As a result, many organizations have struggled to benefit from their adoption.

In this presentation, I describe how to accelerate software delivery by applying modern software development practices and using the microservice architecture effectively. You will learn when you should use microservices and when you should not. I describe the ideal developer experience when using the microservice architecture. You will also learn what other changes you must make to your organization when adopting microservices.

Want to learn more?

I have a new 2 day workshop that will teach you how to use the microservice architecture effectively.
