Microservices

what's this ???

The norm

1 app = 1 server

Everything is in the same place

The used technology is always the same

The codebase grows as the time passes

The norm

1 app = 1 server

prescribing medicines

registering running distance

scheduling appointment

verifying patient medicines

registering weight

writing in soap

rating a medicine

filing availability

The code

1 app = 1 server

The codebase

complexity graph

Microservices

1 app = n servers

Application is splitt into small pieces

1 piece = 1 responsability

The technology can vary from service to service

The services communicate between them

Disadvantages

Advantages

Microservices

• increased infrastructure complexity
• increased request latency due to comms between micro-services
• possibly the need to deal with more technologies
• harder to debug requests that travel between multiple microservices

• Easier to add new features (only need to deal with a limited part of the code)
• Problems only affect a subset of functionality
• Component reutilisation is maximised
• Easier to address performance problems (we can act independently in each service)
• Easier to fix bugs (we only have to deal with a really small subset of code)
• Clearer to understand the scope of the system

Simplicity

Microservices

Why only now?

• This is a new approach, we are first movers.
  We couldn't go all in without knowing all the consequences and hw to deal with them
   
• Speed. We are faster in the architectures we now best and when the product is simple.
  We needed to get a product on the market.
