19:15 β Migrating a Feature from a Monolith to a New Service β Connell Sharp
This is a story about how our team at Stack Overflow split out a small feature from a monolithic application into its own microservice. We moved the data to a new database, rebuilt the UI as a microfrontend using a new framework, and managed to deploy it without any downtime.
In this talk, weβll dive into the challenges with Eventual Consistency, multi-tenancy, cross-origin resource sharing (CORS), and many more. You'll hear the choices we made, along with other options we considered, and what we learned from this experiment.
20:15β Tidy up and walk to the pub (The Adelphi) for drinks
