Explore different technologies for the implementation of microservices while highlighting their advantages and disadvantages.

Microservices Architecture

This module focuses on the various implementations of microservices. We’ll learn approaches for tech stacks that can be used to implement microservices. We’ll also discuss the pros and cons of each approach.
We’ll start by exploring some fundamental concepts for implementing microservices. Within each concept, we’ll 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, and Cloud Foundry. Each technology is described and then demonstrated with real code.

Microservices Architecture: Practical Implementation

Congratulations! We’ve successfully completed the “Microservice Architecture: Practical Implementation” module.

## Summary
This module provides a guideline to choose a suitable technology stack. We first covered the self-contained systems in detail and went through multiple concepts and recipes to demonstrate them.

## What’s next?
We’ve learned different technologies to implement these multiple concepts, we’ll now learn to develop microservices using the Spring Boot framework. We do this in the upcoming “Developing Microservices with Spring Boot” module.
