Microservices are increasingly used in the development world as developers work to create larger, more complex applications that are better developed and managed as a combination of smaller services that work cohesively together for more extensive, application-wide functionality. Tools such as Service Fabric are rising to meet the need to think about and build apps using a piece-by-piece methodology that is, …
One of the major developments in software design and delivery over the last few years has been a movement away from monolith applications towards microservices. One of the sticking points I’ve seen on numerous microservice applications is logging. There are some unique challenges with microservice logging that need to be addressed. In this article, we’ll look at how we can …
Today we’ll be talking about microservices in Java. While it’s true that Java EE has a robust platform for writing, deploying, and managing enterprise-level microservices, in this article I will create a RESTful microservice that is as slim as possible. Don’t worry – we won’t be reinventing the wheel by marshaling our own data or anything. We’ll be using JBoss’ …

The overall idea of this architectural style is to implement an application as a system of services. In the beginning, that seems like an easy task. As long as each service solves only …
Microservices have become one of the most popular architectural styles in the recent years. Previously, most development teams created huge monoliths which implemented all customer requirements. The downside of this approach is that the application often becomes a huge, unstructured combination of components, classes, and interfaces. That makes it hard to understand the overall system and to predict the side-effects …
DevOps sees the coming together of practices, philosophies, and tools that allow you to create services and applications very quickly. This means that you can improve on your apps and evolve them at a much faster rate than those developers who are using traditional software development processes. We’ve talked about DevOps, in general, a great deal, but today, we’re going …
We are on the heels of the first anniversary of the release of Service Fabric, but there are still a lot of misconceptions that I would like to clear up. 1. What is Service Fabric, Really?
