Microservice Architecture
Supported by KongNew conference talks on asynchronous microservices: implementing Sagas and CQRS (#GotoChgo, #microcph)
I recently gave talks at a couple of conferences.
GOTO Chicago - Not Just Events: Developing Asynchronous Microservices
The first talk was at GOTO Chicago. This talk described how to solve distributed data management problems in a microservice architecture using asynchronous messaging. I described how to implement transactions using the Saga pattern and implement queries using the CQRS pattern. Both patterns rely on asynchronous messaging between services.
MicroCPH - Managing data consistency in a microservice architecture using Sagas
My second talk was at MicroCPH in Copenhagen, Denmark. It focussed on implementing transactions that span services using the Saga pattern

About Microservices.io
Microservices.io is brought to you by Chris Richardson. Experienced software architect, author of POJOs in Action, the creator of the original CloudFoundry.com, and the author of Microservices patterns.
Chris helps clients around the world adopt the microservice architecture through consulting engagements, and training classes and workshops.
Learn how to create a service template and microservice chassis
Take a look at my Manning LiveProject that teaches you how to develop a service template and microservice chassis.
New virtual bootcamp: Distributed data patterns in a microservice architecture
My virtual bootcamp, distributed data patterns in a microservice architecture, is now open for enrollment!
It covers the key distributed data management patterns including Saga, API Composition, and CQRS.
It consists of video lectures, code labs, and a weekly ask-me-anything video conference repeated in multiple timezones.
The regular price is $395/person but use coupon WSSEULWL to sign up for $190 (valid until November 30th, 2022). There are deeper discounts for buying multiple seats.
LEARN about microservices
Chris offers numerous resources for learning the microservice architecture.
Training classes
Chris teaches comprehensive workshops, training classes and bootcamps for executives, architects and developers to help your organization use microservices effectively.
Avoid the pitfalls of adopting microservices and learn essential topics, such as service decomposition and design and how to refactor a monolith to microservices.
Delivered in-person and remotely.

Consulting services
Engage Chris to create a microservices adoption roadmap and help you define your microservice architecture,
The Eventuate platform
Use the Eventuate.io platform to tackle distributed data management challenges in your microservices architecture.
Eventuate is Chris's latest startup. It makes it easy to use the Saga pattern to manage transactions and the CQRS pattern to implement queries.
ASSESS your architecture
Consulting services
Engage Chris to conduct an architectural assessment.
Self assessment
Alternatively, conduct a self-assessment using the Microservices Assessment Platform.
