On this evening the JUG BB, Spring Berlin and Microservices Berlin user groups are hosting a collaborative event. We are highly pleased to have two well-known international speakers as our guests from overseas. Besides the talks we want to enrich the meetup with a moderated panel discussion afterward. If you – as a visitor – want to ask any broader question to our guests feel free to bring them to the event and we will collect them for the panel rounds.

**SESSIONS**

**Microservices rules: What good looks like (60 min) by Chris Richardson**

The microservice architecture has become increasingly popular over the past decade. Its key benefits include significantly improving the developer experience and accelerating software delivery. Sadly, however, microservices have often been widely misunderstood and used inappropriately. As a result, many organizations have struggled to benefit from their adoption. I’ve had numerous conversations where developers have complained that their new microservices-based applications are difficult to change. They have very quickly created an unmaintainable legacy application. To prevent this from happening, I’ve defined 11 development and architecture rules (a.k.a. best practices).
