Generally small and mid size app can be easily developed with monolith with great scale sometime we over engineer things for fashion like microservices

What is small today may be large tomorrow. What you think as over engineering may be a future proof design. Just a thought 🙂

The best point u spoke about was for startups microservices can be expensive but if you start with building each function with well defined interface it will be easy to migrate to microservices easily.. that totally makes sense :)

@@princezuko7073 Interfaces can be used internally between the same system, vs only using them for external communications. Implementing them during initial design means that if you want to swap to microservices, the interfaces already exist and it makes it managable to migrate over (else you would likely be re-writing/refactoring basically the whole app).

Thank you for making these great videos. They've helped me a lot. You're a great artist and teacher. I look forward to all your media and information.
I am preparing interview now, this is perfect to sum up the concept! Two thumbs up! Subscribed!
This is a great video, the only thing I would have added is that microservices are most applicable when your teams, and the business, are structured in a way that needs separate development and release timelines. If that isn't the case, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages 9/10 times, as large services perform better, are easier to develop and secure, and cost less .

What about when you move to serverless architectures where you pay for what you use and split your app into long running and short running functions? I ask because we’re doing a transformation and currently we deploy a monolithic app to a kubeneties cluster so we’re paying a constant fee to have resource’s running all the time, I would have thought moving this to lamda for all sub 10-15 minute tasks which is probably 80-90% of all tasks mean we pay fractions of a penny on an event and then any long running we move to step functions where we can or some docker container running on a smaller amount of fixed resources? Just wondering is all because I thought paying for fixed resources is more expensive than paying for time on resources?

@@buddinghero That depends on if you actually can use fewer resources to run the remaining 10-20% of services. If you still need the same number of machines of the same size to run those 10-20% of remaining tasks, then it'd be largely a waste of time to separate out lambda functions, and you now also suffer performance additional deployment pipeline overheads for no/little gain. Monoliths are typically quite efficient for resource usage (RAM, CPU, network bandwidth etc.) as you don't have additional overheads of separate running operating systems/process domains. A big downside of Monoliths primarily being you have to deploy the whole unit every time stuff changes and depending on the language the compile time might be a significant overhead too.

@@buddinghero If your services are used infrequently, serverless computing makes sense. But serverless is limited. Each cloud provider has their own serverless system so you are locked into a vendor. I normally use AWS. A request has to be processed within 5 seconds default timeout. It also has memory limit. To expose it to web, we have to use AppGateway, which is expensive and has its own way of deployment(dev/qa/prod). Sometimes I want service other than simple request/response like WebSocket, Cron, Subscription to MQ. Although AWS lambda sort of provide those functionality, I feels more natural to just set up a box. There are other obvious issues like cold start, no local state(no keep-alive, no internal cache, no connection pool), price(expensive when directly compared to ec2 or onprem server), deployment(need to deploy each function).
Nice explanation Sir , make me completely understand between monolithic architecture ( I still use these days , since the very small organization - less than 9 people ) , Three tier architecture ( that my clients use these days ) and Microservices architecture ( I never use and still learning ) .
This was well put. Short and very helpful.

Your videos are excellent!! Can you do one like this on grpc vs REST APIs?
As usual, awsome presentation - Wish for more!
Great video and clear explanation! Could you make a video on the comparison of spring cloud and kubernetes?
Independent deployability of microservices is probably their biggest advantage because it leads large organizations to faster time-to-market while limiting the blast radius of new deployments. Besides, independent scalability of microservices over monoliths is a very crucial advantage which helps them adapt easily to the increasing workload.
Great video and very clear explanation! I would like to suggest a video with more detailed explanations about DDD and how to scale SQL and non-SQL databases. Please, what set of tools do you use to build your presentations / videos?

Great videos. We like to have a "multi-services" architecture where size is more of a deployment detail, thanks to Kubernetes. Also, most important in cloud architecture is to be event-based from the start to avoid Web-Of-Hell service architecture.

You can keep the foriegn keys, all you need to do is also have that table with only the information that it needs, this can be past from the source of truths service. E.g. if I create a new user, that source of truth service, will store the data and then publish a success message with the same data. This is so that another service can pick it up and store that same data, allowing the foriegn key. So if the users service goes down that other service still has that data, meaning it is fully functional.
Btw, the illustrations are dope! What software do you use?
Excellent video and deeply explained

RPC: It’s like GPRC to provider faster response, but blast radius or impact to other micro-service would be larger when the service was go down. Event Streaming: It provides better isolation between services but they take longer to process. What about message brokers ?

I'd add you need to consider failure domains when discussing MS isolation. E.g. if all your databases are hosted on one DB cluster and that cluster goes down - these's not much isolation. All your services can't work

As Zolando CTO says 7 years ago "There was _no_ technical reasons to moving from monolith to microservices. The only one reason is people don't like to write code in Java, people want to try many other languages. And only microservices makes possible to retain and hire more people."

I think it's the matter of cloud service marketing to hype the microservices, and then their tools will be make sense and they start making money. Nothing wrong with moonlit as long as you know how to scale up that, heck can you imagine if SAP breaking down to microservices.

Thank you very much for the video. Just a quick question - The communication between microservices using event streaming, does it take long time to process with traditional streaming solution? I was just looking at Kinesis Data Stream and can provide milliseconds.
