Summary
Your team wants to adopt microservices.
Is your organization ready for the challenge?
What is a microservice?
Bounded contexts in domain driven design (at worst)
Request–response flow breakdown with
preferably many smaller pieces (with separate codebase)
A bug in a service doesn't bring down the whole app
Scales well, needs minimal additional resources
Supports event-driven architecture
Single responsibility, API interface
Best practices
Clear interfaces between services
Auto discovery
Dynamic configuration
High availability
Scale and update single services
Pitfalls
Wrong domain model
Error handling & circuit breaking
Fault-tolerance
Monitoring
Multiple points of failure
Hard to get the big picture
CHANGE
is the essence of the game
Code will rapidly change
Dependencies will change
Deployment & release processes will change
What will change?
How can you adapt?
Mindset changes
Prepare for and own the change
Defer responsibilities
Increase visibility on dependencies and interfaces between software components
Architectural documents are back
DevOps movement
Integration tests are a lot more important
Controversy: decrease unit and functional tests and increase automated user acceptance tests.
Benefits
Increase in code ownership
Awareness of impact
Increase in communication
Reduced stress due to automation
Architecture is straightforward; reduces ambiguity for what implementation belongs in what class
DDD is more important, more straightforward
Infrastructural changes
Freedom to use the best tool for the job
Invest in a solid CI/CD process
Pipelined builds with several stages
Containerize your application
Invest heavily in monitoring
Benefits
No vendor lock in

Fit for distributed teams!
Conclusion
Microservices will supercharge your organization.
The future is bright and the game is afoot!
thank you!
Let's keep in touch!

By Armağan Amcalar
Streamlining Development Processes with Microservices
In a world where consistent and timely delivery is everything, we not only look for organizational and management solutions like Agile & Scrum, but we also explore architectural alternatives to improve our efficiency in delivery. In this talk, Armagan will talk about the best practices of microservices architecture and the devops approach. He will present concrete steps on how to transform the development team and processes accordingly to improve overall efficiency in the team.
