moving services between platforms or settings is simpler. Organizations can take use of many infrastructure options, such as cloud services or on-premises configurations. They can switch between them easily, thanks to this flexibility. Microservices designs’ portability makes deployment...
And if you connect them to the databases, you’ve got very single-purpose connections into the database that are doing one thing, and you can start to control at the access level there as well. What used to be policy-controlled by the operations people — what they felt was a safe ...
Microservices is one of the most common buzzwords, one used so frequently many people pretend to know what they are but aren't really sure. Jon Galloway (@jongalloway) joins us to answer the question of what they are, and why we should use microservices.
To win in such market conditions, not only do companies have to have the capabilities to build these kind of solutions, but also they have to build them faster than their competitors. This is why many organizations are rethinking how they are architecting and building solutions so that they ...
Why Microservices? Microservices make it easier to develop, test, and deploy isolated parts of your application. Once deployed, each microservice can be independently scaled as needed. Microservices and containers Containers combine an app plus its configuration and dependencies into a single, independen...
wary that microservices do present some significant drawbacks. Before you break down a reliable monolith into a plethora of smaller, functionally identical micro-components, make sure you understand these challenges with a microservices architecture, and how to get around them -- or live with them....
bring together cross-functional teams around a business problem, service, or product. The microservices model fits neatly with this trend because it enables an organization to create small, cross-functional teams around one service or a collection of services and have them operate in an agile ...

By comparison, a typical VM requires an entire OS, drivers and other elements. A microservice can be deployed in a VM. This can provide extra isolation, but it also creates unnecessary redundancy and costs. Why deploy and pay for 10 to 20 OS licenses for VMs to create a single applicatio...
Gateway Offloading. Use the gateway to offload functionality from individual services to the gateway, particularly cross-cutting concerns. It can be useful to consolidate these functions into one place, rather than making every service responsible for implementing them. This is particularly true for fea...
