Learn to implement microservices across a range of common tech stacks.

Scalability & System Design for Developers

In this module, we’ll look at some fundamental concepts for implementing microservices. Within each concept, learn about the different technologies used to implement it. The technologies include front-end integration with Edge Side Includes (ESI), asynchronous microservices with Kafka and REST feeds, synchronous microservices with the Netflix stack, and Consul, Docker, Kubernetes, Cloud Foundry. Each technology is described and then demonstrated with real code.

Microservice Architecture: Practical Implementation

## Chapter walkthrough
The following chapters describe microservices platforms. Readers learn
that:

* Microservices platforms **provide support** for the operation and also
for the communication of microservices.

* **PaaS (Platform as a Service)** cloud offerings and Docker scheduler are examples of microservices platforms.


* Microservices platforms **have their advantages and disadvantages**, which makes them superior to other approaches in some scenarios.
