Reading Time: 3 minutes If you are writing software applications for a while that can be in the category of a SaaS application and has to scale and work in a distributed environment, you might face or participate in Design or Architectural Audits of your applications. If you want to conduct or simply Ice-breaking with the process, you would need homework before you proceed. If you don’t have a Continue Reading
Reading Time: 4 minutes What Happens When Reactive Meets Microservices? It would be beneficial if you understand the concepts of Reactive Architecture before diving into Reactive Microservices. You can read about Reactive Architecture here: Leaning Towards Reactive Architecture In this article we will cover transition from Monoliths to Service Oriented Architecture to Reactive Microservices by applying isolation techniques to the application. What are Monoliths? To start explaining the microservices Continue Reading
Reading Time: 5 minutes In my previous blog. I discussed some In-build functionalities of ScalaGeek that makes it unique and flexible. Now In this blog, I will discuss the architecture and the tech stack that is used in ScalaGeek. Technology Stack In the ScalaGeek we have used five primary technologies for Back-end and two are used for front-end:1. Scala2. Akka3. Kafka4. Real-time database5. Firestore6. Angular 87. IonicNow I will Continue Reading
Reading Time: 3 minutes Microservices Architecture has been gaining a lot of ground as the preferred architecture for implementing solutions as it provides benefits like scalability, logical and physical separation, small teams managing a part of the functionality, flexibility in technology etc. But these benefits come at a cost of simplicity since microservices are distributed the complexity of managing them increases. One of the key challenges is how to Continue Reading
Reading Time: 3 minutes In the previous blog, we have learnt what Event Sourcing is. Moving forward, we will dive into the concepts of CQRS, understanding its meaning, why is it required and its advantages. CQRS Pattern CQRS stands for Command Query Responsibility Segregation. As the name suggests, we split the application in two parts: Command-Side and Query-Side. Now one will ask what this command and query means? Okay, Continue Reading
Reading Time: 6 minutes In our earlier blog, we explored a bit about Microservices. But let’s take a step back and look into how microservices can be effectively designed. Yes, you guessed it right. We will be talking about the Domain Driven Design or what we call the DDD approach. But before jumping into the concepts of Domain Driven Design, let’s understand 2 basic terminologies : Domain: A domain is the sphere Continue Reading
Reading Time: 2 minutes What is Lagom? Simply put, it is a microservices tool. Lagom is a microservices framework that guides developers in moving from monolithic to a scalable, resilient microservice based systems. It is a platform delivering you not only the microservice framework but also a whole tool set for developing applications along with creating, managing and monitoring your services. According to Lightbend the focus should not be Continue Reading
Reading Time: < 1 minute Playing-Microservices This blog describes a basic Microservice architecture design using Play 2.4.X and Scala. The big idea behind microservices is to architect large, complex and long-lived applications as a set of cohesive services that evolve over time. The term microservices strongly suggests that the services should be small. In short, the microservice architectural style is an approach to developing a single application as a suite Continue Reading
