Getting Started With Microservices

What are microservices and what is the best way to get started with them when you are creating a new system? Microservices architecture is considerably, subtly, more complicated than it looks. You won’t get it right the first time, so how do you figure out what makes a service, what the conversations between them should look like and how to minimise coupling between them?

In this episode, a microservices tutorial, Dave Farley describes the microservices basics that help you to do a better job. He describes three different levels that we need to think about when designing a service and offers his advice on how to focus on the right parts of the problem to allow you to create better, more independent, services, based on Dave’s software engineering approach.
