Description:

Because they promise to provide high scalability and availability, microservices are gaining ground in high-throughput Java applications. However, design patterns that worked well in a monolithic application rarely work well in the microservices world. The design patterns you choose for your microservices-based applications play a significant role in their performance.

In this webcast, you'll get a deeper look at 3 anti-patterns in microservices architecture that may cause significant performance impacts on your applications. You'll learn tips for avoiding these anti-patterns, so you can create effective and efficient conversions.

Asad Ali and Reinhard Pilz, from Dynatrace, will use Spring Boot applications built on a microservices architecture to showcase these anti-patterns and successful techniques for avoiding them, such as:

  • How to create balance between service-level granularity and application performance
  • How to distribute services across multiple processes and hosts, and gain scalability and availability without degrading performance
  • How to optimize inter-service communication without creating payload overhead
