How Unnecessary Complexity Gave the Service Mesh a Bad Name
Topics covered include: cross-team collaboration strategies, designing observability access control, and planning for unified APIs. Jessica Tai, engineering manager at Airbnb, discusses lessons learned by Airbnb from its migration to microservices in this QCon Plus talk recording, " The Human Side of Airbnb's Microservice Architecture". The Human Side of Airbnb’s Microservice Architecture The team adopted continuous delivery best practices and implemented these using tooling such as Spinnaker, HashiCorp Consul, and the ELK stack.
The Pantheon SaaS platform was adopted for websites, and AWS technologies and Kubernetes were utilized for other workloads. Speed of delivery, reliability, and security were critical requirements. Woods was the CTO for the Biden for President 2020 campaign and in order to meet the business goals his team built a robust microservices architecture. In this recent InfoQ article, Dan Woods, CISO and VP of cybersecurity at Shipt, discussed how technology played a central role in the 2020 US Presidential election cycle. The assumptions are: the network is reliable latency is zero bandwidth is infinite the network is secure topology doesn’t change there is one administrator transport cost is zero the network is homogeneous. The eight fallacies are a set of conjectures about distributed computing that can lead to failures in software development. InfoQ has taken the chance to talk with Diaconu to learn more about how Ably engineers deal with these fallacies. In a recent article on the Ably Blog, Alex Diaconu reviewed the thirty-year-old " eight fallacies of distributed computing" and provided a number of hints at how to handle them. News Reviewing the Eight Fallacies of Distributed Computing Key challenges remain for architects designing such systems, including both human and technical issues. The topic of "microservices" is currently listed in the "late majority" category of adoption in our most recent Architecture and Design InfoQ Trends Report, but the topic of "correctly built distributed systems" is listed as only "early majority". This month, we focus on the topic of "Microservices: Past, Present, and Future". Welcome to the InfoQ Software Architects’ Newsletter! Each month, we bring you essential news and experience from industry peers on emerging patterns and technologies.
