Architecting for Failures in Microservices

Explore best practices for building resilient microservices in this 42-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Learn how to architect for failures in distributed systems by assuming everything will fail and designing backwards. Examine real-life outages and failures to understand the importance of building stable and predictable services in microservice-based architectures. Discover key takeaways including expecting the unexpected, thoroughly debugging issues, identifying systemic weaknesses, and planning for resiliency throughout the development lifecycle. Gain insights from Bhakti Mehta, an experienced software engineer and author, on creating robust microservices that can withstand failures and maintain reliability in complex distributed environments.
