Microservices: The supporting cast

Randy Layman looks at several members of the supporting cast that help to bring microservices to production readiness. Along the way, Randy talks about several patterns, including a pattern to clean data from inputs to help with PII and compliance concerns, patterns for request routing, and patterns around security.

We’ve all talked all about microservices and their functions, but there’s more to a working service than just the business logic. Randy Layman looks at several members of the supporting cast that help to bring microservices to production readiness. Along the way, Randy talks about several patterns, including a pattern to clean data from inputs to help with PII and compliance concerns, patterns for request routing, and patterns around security.

Running containerized applications securely in production

December 26, 2019

Research shows that 46% of deployed containers run for one hour and 27% run for about five minutes. In such a fast-paced, disposable computing environment, cloud operators struggle to keep their workloads and container environments under control. Giuseppe de Candia explains how to take the chaos out of these short-lived computing engines and the security implications to consider along the way.

There are plenty of talks out there about how to get started with microservices, but in reality you learn by doing. Erin Schnabel and Katherine Stanley explore lessons learned while creating GameOn!, an interactive text-based adventure game that allows you to get hands-on with a microservice architecture to find out what works and what doesn't, and how we as a community can learn from each other.

Service consumption chaos is currently one of the biggest challenges in microservice environments. Mike Dvorkin discusses how tackling the complexity of exploding service dependencies and their control through a consistent consumption abstraction can significantly simplify how teams develop, test, deploy, and control applications.

Rethinking security from the ground up with a microservices mindset

November 6, 2019

Recent high-profile data breaches have made it clear that traditional security based on n-tier application partitioning is broken. As we move into the container era, there is a huge opportunity to revolutionize security by rendering developer intent directly into the network fabric. Andrew Randall presents an open source approach to this problem, leveraging proven IP networking and Linux concepts.
