RESTful Microservices from the Ground Up - Background

Who is this presentation for?

  • Service designers, software architects, and developers

Prerequisite knowledge

  • A working knowledge of Node.js and implementing services on the web
  • Familiarity with microservices

Materials or downloads needed in advance

The workshop relies on "table-top" exercises using stickynotes and colored pens. However, there may be some code examples shown. If you'd like to access the github repository that holds the code examples and other related material, you can use the following:

  • A laptop with Node.js and the text editor and coding environment of your choice installed
  • A GitHub account
  • A Heroku account (optional)

What you'll learn

  • Understand the role REST can play in microservice design, the importance of stable interfaces in front of changing code, and the value and challenges of supporting runtime discovery
  • Learn how to design for emergent adaptability without adding needless complexity
