Microservices Architecture Design

What You Will Learn

• 1 Learn the foundational principles of microservices architecture and how it differs from monolithic and SOA-based systems.
• 2 Understand service decomposition strategies, including domain-driven design and bounded context identification.
• 3 Apply inter-service communication patterns such as synchronous REST, gRPC, and asynchronous messaging with event-driven design.
• 4 Analyze data management strategies in distributed systems, including database-per-service, CQRS, and eventual consistency.
• 5 Build API gateway patterns, service mesh configurations, and load balancing strategies for production-grade systems.
• 6 Implement containerization with Docker and orchestration principles using Kubernetes for microservices deployments.
• 7 Develop resilience patterns including circuit breakers, bulkheads, retries, and distributed tracing for fault-tolerant systems.
• 8 Explore security architecture for microservices including authentication, authorization, and secrets management at scale.
• 9 Understand CI/CD pipeline design, blue-green deployments, and canary releases for continuous delivery of microservices.
• 10 Apply observability practices including centralized logging, metrics collection, alerting, and incident response for microservices.
