Chapter 12. A Journey’s End (and a New Beginning)

Congratulations, you’ve made it to the final chapter! While you may be reaching the end of your journey with us, we hope it is only the beginning of a long and fruitful journey in successfully implementing microservices on real projects. We make no excuses for the fact that we are admirers of the microservices architecture and of the benefits it can bring when deployed in the right context, with the right intentions and skill. It is by no means the only choice and should never be implemented without understanding all the implications, but it can certainly be a very powerful choice in your arsenal of architectural tools.

We have witnessed many successful microservices projects. There is also no shortage of failed attempts to adopting microservices. Our main motivation in writing this book was to increase a reader’s chances of success, if they so choose to implement their system in the microservices style. We tried to do it by providing step-by-step, pragmatic guidelines on when, why, and how to deploy microservices, explaining core concepts and demonstrating the implementation of those concepts, using simple examples. We hope we were successful in achieving the goal of turning abstract concepts into a more approachable step-by-step explanation, but most importantly, we hope you enjoyed reading this book, even if it provided only a handful of key ideas you think you can use when implementing your own systems.
