Remote consulting session
Got a specific microservice architecture-related question? For example:
- Wondering whether your organization should adopt microservices?
- Want to know how to migrate your monolith to microservices?
- Facing a tricky microservice architecture design problem?
Consider signing up for a two hour, highly focussed, consulting session.
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 KQAWEXBH to sign up for $120 (valid until November 21st, 2023). There are deeper discounts for buying multiple seats.
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.

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.
