More the merrier: a microservices anti-pattern
A common microservice architecture anti-pattern is more the merrier. It occurs when an organization team builds an excessively fine-grained architecture, e.g. one service-per-developer. In this talk, you will learn about the criteria that you should consider when deciding service granularity. I'll discuss the downsides of a fine-grained microservice architecture. You will learn how sometimes the solution to a design problem is simply a JAR file.
Microservices with Quarkus
As interest grows in microservices and containers, Java developers have struggled to make applications smaller and faster to meet today’s demands and requirements. In the modern computing environment, applications must respond to requests quickly and efficiently, be suitable for running in volatile environments such as containers, and support rapid development. Because of this, Java, and popular Java runtimes, are sometimes considered inferior to runtimes in other languages such as Node.js and Go. With additions to Java and Java frameworks over the past few years, Java can proudly retain its role as the primary language for enterprise applications. Quarkus is one such framework that has taken the Java community by storm. Quarkus combines developer productivity and joy with the speed and performance of Go. This session will introduce some of these challenges while showcasing the unique approach Quarkus employs to achieve its Supersonic startup speed and Subatomic memory footprint on the JVM, all while providing Java developers the killer developer productivity capabilities they have been longing for.
ACID transactions in Apache Cassandra®
Are you in this camp? "I can't use Cassandra because it doesn't have transactions." Have you heard about CEP-15, featuring a new consensus protocol called Accord? This proposal is to add fully ACID compliant global transactions to Apache Cassandra. Well, that's going to change everything! Let's talk about how it will work and how it will change the way you use Cassandra:
- A user view of how Accord enables global transactions
- Changes in CQL Syntax
- Examples of how it could be used in your application
