Distributed asynchronous microservices: why bother?

Sponsorem spotkania jest Leancode.

Zapraszamy na ostatnie spotkanie w tym roku. Wystąpi Szymon Pobiega z prezentacją o znanych i (oby) lubianych mikroserwisach.

Prezentacja będzie w języku polskim.

Wyjątkowo nie będzie pizzy po prezentacji, ale nadal planujemy blok Q&A i networkingu bezpośrednio po wystąpieniu Szymona.

Abstrakt:

Distributed asynchronous microservices: why bother?

The alternative is centralized and synchronous. But is it really a viable alternative? Let's start by asking a question how does a distributed system look like. Is distribution a binary trait or maybe there are degrees of distribution?

We will carefully examine reasons for distributing both data and code. We'll ask some fundamental questions like what constitutes a microservice? Are two processes that access a shared database a single microservice or two? Or maybe three?

In the second part we will look carefully at how these distributed microservices communicate. We will compare synchronous and asynchronous communication patterns.

Bio:

Szymon works an engineer at Particular Software, the makers of NServiceBus. His main areas of expertise are Domain-Driven Design and asynchronous messaging. He is especially interested in the intersection of these two topics -- in the patterns and tools for ensuring all messages are processed exactly once and in the correct order.

In his free time Szymon plays with Lego, building models of real-life off-road vehicles.
