Microservices: What Does It Take To Be Successful?
by Sarah Wells
Microservices can be a very effective approach to speeding up delivery of value to your organisation and to your customers. If you get them right.
If you don’t, then microservices are just something that makes everything you do more complicated, from working out where things are going wrong to upgrading the same dependency in tens or hundreds of services.
Sarah will draw on ten years of experience building and operating microservices at the Financial Times to talk about:
– What it means to be “successful” with your architecture and technology choices. Can you move fast? Understand what is happening in production? Avoid having to start again?
– What you need in place to make microservices work, from technology maturity and leadership support through to platform engineering and observability
– Where we go next with microservices: what are the new tools and approaches that will help us get the most out of them?
