Evolving to microservices: SmartThings case study

Evolving to microservices: SmartThings case study

Jeff Beck has been on a five-year journey evolving the architecture at SmartThings, moving from one monolith and three supporting services to more than one hundred microservices and expanding from a US-only platform to a worldwide IoT platform. The architecture has been shaped by product and organizational needs. Join Jeff to explore the major architectural eras iterated on the platform.

Icebergs, bathtubs, and flows: Applying systems thinking to software architecture

Icebergs, bathtubs, and flows: Applying systems thinking to software architecture

January 16, 2020

Software systems have a dynamic nature that requires a design approach different from the architecture of physical structures. Systems thinking examines the structure and behavior of complex systems. Matt McLarty provides an introduction to systems thinking and explores how it can be applied to software architecture, particularly in the context of distributed systems and microservices.
Lessons in debugging serverless architecture

Lessons in debugging serverless architecture

January 15, 2020

Serverless architecture opens up a world of opportunity for development, providing ease of use while deploying and operating at scale. But this can decrease visibility, making it difficult to see when your environment is misbehaving in terms of throughput, functionality, and performance. Tal Weiss introduces a successful new framework for debugging serverless architecture with real-world examples.
On microservices, bounded contexts, and everything in between

On microservices, bounded contexts, and everything in between

January 15, 2020

Often microservices and bounded contexts are considered to be the same thing. They are not. Vladik Khononov identifies the difference between microservices and bounded contexts, provides heuristics when each pattern should be used, and shares his experience optimizing microservices-quotebased architectures at Naxex.
