Recently I was interviewed by Ralph Winzinger of InfoQ on the subject of building antifragile software with microservices, the main aim of the interview being to demystify these two concepts as much as possible.
During the interview I covered the following:
During the interview I covered the following:
- Putting antifragility in the context of software systems.
- How antifragile systems can be constructed from a variety of components/services that may be fragile/robust in nature.
- The relationship between microservices and antifragility.
- Why size of a microservice is not the important thing.
- Technologies, tools and platforms that support microservices well, and those that go further to encompass antifragility.
- The relationship between antifragility and building software that adapts and is therefore agile.
- How simplicity is a key principle of a microservices architecture.
- Approaches to transforming legacy, possibly monolithic, systems towards microservices and antifragility.
