Microservices

Microservices

• needs to run on it's own process
• independently deployable
• can be written in any language
• communicates with other services through lightweight channels (http, protobuf, mq)
• are organized around boundary (ui, logistics, billing)
• are easy to replace

Services are small in size, messaging enabled, bounded by contexts, autonomously developed, independently deployable, decentralized and built and released with automated processes.

Serverless

Functions as a Service

tl;dr

there is servers ;)

But, how to write them in Node.js?

• express
• seneca
• hydra
• micro

why not pure `http`?

Let's do some (live) coding!
