A rapid introduction to the basics of microservices design for the enterprise. Provides deep insight into the design of domain-driven, business event-based reactive systems, along with some of the more challenging aspects of defining state-of-the-art REST APIs.

Course Overview

This fast-paced, two-day workshop will get you off to a quick start designing enterprise microservices. It includes plenty of lab time to allow you to learn by doing, and hands-on exercises that reinforce key concepts to help you gain proficiency fast. Between lecture sessions and hands-on labs you'll get a first-hand introduction to fundamental concepts of microservices, domain-driven design, business event-driven modeling, and REST API design.

• Learn the fundamental goals of microservices, and how microservice architecture can benefit the enterprise.
• Gain hands-on experience initiating microservices modeling activities via event storming sessions.
• Learn to identify key business events (e.g., Invoice Paid, Customer Registered, etc.), and gain insight into how they can become key integration points for future applications and workflows in the enterprise.
• Learn how business events can be used to decouple systems, and to allow services, microservices, external systems, and applications to evolve independently as the enterprise and IT demand grows.
• Gain hands-on experience using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to identify bounded contexts, entities, value objects, and business events.
• Learn to develop a microservices strategy that can ultimately scale to accommodate the entire enterprise.
• Get familiar with using Swagger to define, document, and publish RESTful APIs for microservices.
