2017 Microservices Practitioner Virtual Summit: Move Fast, Make Things: how developers can successfully adopt microservices
1 like1,274 views
The document discusses the three essential components of microservices: people, process, and technology. It emphasizes that the process, particularly service-oriented development, drives velocity and continuous improvement through small iterations, while advocating for autonomous teams and decentralized architecture. The technology stack includes tools such as Kubernetes and Docker, enabling flexibility and operational efficiency.

- 4. datawire.io Why is process so important? 4
- 5. datawire.io Velocity comes from process, not architecture 5
- 6. datawire.io Microservices: Service Oriented Development What this means Why it works How to do it 6
- 8. datawire.io Engineering is Guess & Check 8
- 12. datawire.io Cheap Guess/Check merges roles 12
- 14. datawire.io Microservices Process: Service Oriented Development The output of the process: ● Continuously improving Service The process: ● Guess (incremental improvements) ● Check (correctness + availability & user impact in production) The tools: ● Deployment - make small guesses ● Observability - measure the impact on functionality, availability, users ● Resilience - ensure negative impacts are not catastrophic 14
- 15. datawire.io Microservices Process: Service Oriented Development Ignore architecture, focus on release frequency As soon as you have users, adjust your process to measure user impact Recognize that stability vs progress is a fundamental tradeoff ● for a single service… 15

- 22. datawire.io Microservices People: Autonomous Teams Make your teams fully autonomous Ignore technical boundaries, define services functionally ● who uses the service, and what does it help them do God’s eye view is harmful ● decentralize the architecture & operations work to avoid organizational bottlenecks 22
- 24. datawire.io The tech stack ● Kubernetes -- infrastructure as configuration ● Docker -- build containers ● Envoy -- API gateway + L7 Router 24
