The Journey from Monoliths to Microservices

Tuesday, 10:30 AM EST - SAND DUNE

The vast majority of developers have experience creating monoliths. Whereas that experience is really good to have from the point of view of building monoliths, they may become a hindrance when creating microservices. There are a few things we have to do differently, we have to unlearn a few design principles, we have to adhere to a few different architectural goals, and yet carry forward some of the techniques that have worked well before.

In this presentation, we will focus on how to transition from building monoliths to creating microservices.
