3 Common Pitfalls In Microservice Integration And How To Avoid Them

Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.

• Communication is complex. With everything being distributed failures are normal so you need sophisticated failure handling strategies (e.g. stateful retry).

• Asynchronicity requires you to handle timeouts. This is not only about milliseconds, systems get much more resilient when you can wait for minutes, hours or even longer.

• Distributed transactions cannot simply be delegated to protocols like XA. So you need to solve the requirement to retain consistency in case of failures.

Bernd will not only use slides but also demonstrate concrete source code examples available on GitHub.
