Microservices Architecture Roadmap
The definitive guide to designing decoupled, scalable, and resilient microservices systems for top tier tech interviews.
1
Monolith vs Microservices
Understand the tradeoffs of breaking down a monolithic application. Learn when to use microservices and the operational complexity they introduce.
2
API Gateways and Service Discovery
In a microservices ecosystem, clients shouldn't communicate directly with services. Learn how API Gateways, Load Balancers, and Service Registries (like Consul or ZooKeeper) manage traffic.
3
Event-Driven Architecture & Messaging
Synchronous HTTP calls between microservices lead to cascading failures. Learn how to use message brokers like Kafka, RabbitMQ, and SQS for asynchronous event-driven communication.
