Do You Really Want to Go Fully Micro

Explore the nuanced approach to microservices architecture in this 31-minute Devoxx conference talk. Delve into the concept of an API gateway as a balanced solution between microservices and monoliths. Learn about the advantages and challenges of microservices, including decoupling, scalability, and deployment benefits, as well as potential drawbacks like latency and operational complexity. Discover how an API gateway can facilitate a gradual adoption of microservices while mitigating complexities. Examine practical implementations using Apache Sling, covering topics such as authentication, authorization, API standardization, and logging. Gain insights into transparent and transforming gateways, RESTful design, and JSON web tokens. Watch a live demonstration and come away with a comprehensive understanding of when and how to effectively implement microservices in your software architecture.
