Durable Execution - The Next Leap for Microservices Architectures

Explore the future of microservices architectures in this 38-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Dive into the concept of durable execution and learn how to reduce developers' cognitive load by implementing higher-level abstractions in Platform Orchestrators using Kubernetes operators and Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs). Discover how platform engineering and Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) can empower developers with self-service tools, enabling them to focus more on delivering value. Examine the use of Kubernetes as a powerful tool for engineering platforms, with a focus on designing an effective Platform Orchestrator or Control Plane. Gain insights into leveraging Kubernetes Operators and CRDs to create fit-for-purpose abstractions, using microservices and data products as examples. By the end of this talk, acquire valuable knowledge on engineering cloud-native platforms and implementing durable execution strategies to enhance microservices architectures.
