Patterns of Evolution from Monolith to Microservices

Explore patterns in the evolution of legacy systems toward microservices and learn how this transition can be directed to event-oriented architectures.

This talk looks at some of the patterns in the evolution of legacy systems toward microservices and learn how this transition can be directed to event-oriented architectures. Learn the trade-offs between having a centralized database versus multiple microservices with their own database. In this scenario, how can we guarantee transaction consistency and know when to use choreography versus orchestration. In addition, see practical examples of when to use synchronous or asynchronous communication and when it makes sense to use something like service mesh or event sourcing.
