Stay competitive in today’s software industry by mastering microservices. As microservices architecture becomes the modern standard, this book demystifies the transition from monoliths to microservices with clear guidance and practical examples for easier adoption and implementation.

The book starts with the basics, explaining what microservices are, their benefits, and how they compare to monolithic architectures. From there, you will explore a wide range of topics including service discovery, load balancing, authentication and authorization, resilience, fault tolerance, and much more as well as practical Java examples throughout. Each chapter is meticulously crafted to offer a balance of theory and hands-on application, ensuring you not only understand the concepts but also apply them effectively in real-world scenarios.

By the end of the book, you will be ready to design, implement, and manage scalable and efficient microservices-based systems. Additionally, you will gain a forward-looking perspective on emerging trends and the integration of microservices in AI and IoT.

What You Will Learn:

Compare microservices and monolithic systems, understanding the basics, benefits and key differences
Understand key principles for decomposing monoliths and designing for failure
Master synchronous vs. asynchronous communication and when to use each
Explore containerization, orchestration with Kubernetes, and scaling strategies
Secure microservices and monitor health and performance in distributed systems

Who This Book Is For:
Novice and experienced developers who are new to microservices and want to master the topic to drive successful software projects. The book is programming language-agnostic, and can be understood by developers of any language, but those with some familiarity with Java will benefit more from the specific examples provided.

If you’re involved in software development and architecture and need to cut through the buzz, The Art of Decoding Microservices: An In-Depth Exploration of Modern Software Architecture is the book you’ve been looking for. It’s both a beginner’s guide and a Swiss Army knife, a handy reference for those making their first foray into microservices as well as a refreshing and clear text for those who have been around the block a couple of times already.

From novice to microservices seasoned veteran, there is something for everyone in this book. Newcomers will benefit from an accessible, jargon-free introduction to microservices, while seasoned practitioners will find advanced patterns and tools that take their systems to the next level. You’ll learn how to build scalable, resilient, and maintainable systems, based on real-world examples and case studies. You’ll learn the nitty-gritty of CI/CD pipelines, container orchestration, and service monitoring, so you have a playbook for keeping microservices running. You’ll also receive both strategic advice and practical tips for going from monolith to microservices, so you’ll be better prepared to tackle your own migration. This book bridges the gap between theory and practice, providing a wealth of information for study and innovation. You will be equipped to assess the technical and business pros and cons of adopting microservices so you can make the right decisions for your organization and its future.

Whether you’re in the trenches of code, leading a team, or making strategic decisions about your company’s tech stack, The Art of Decoding Microservices will help you gain the knowledge you need to succeed in this fast-paced world of software development. It’s helpful to have a basic understanding of software development and architecture before jumping into the deep end—but don’t worry; we’ll take you from novice to ninja in no time.
