As organizations shift from monolithic applications to smaller, self-contained microservices, distributed systems have become more fine-grained. But developing these new systems brings its own host of problems. This expanded second edition takes a holistic view of topics that you need to consider when building, managing, and scaling microservices architectures.

Through clear examples and practical advice, author Sam Newman gives everyone from architects and developers to testers and IT operators a firm grounding in the concepts. You'll dive into the latest solutions for modeling, integrating, testing, deploying, and monitoring your own autonomous services. Real-world cases reveal how organizations today manage to get the most out of these architectures.

Microservices technologies continue to move quickly. This book brings you up to speed.

Get new information on user interfaces, container orchestration, and serverless
Align system design with your organization's goals
Explore options for integrating a service with your system
Understand how to independently deploy microservices
Examine the complexities of testing and monitoring distributed services
Manage security with expanded content around user-to-service and service-to-service models

From the Publisher

What's new in the second edition

The second edition is a complete rewrite of the previous edition. It is aimed at giving a broad overview of all aspects related to microservices. Giving a firm foundation in the basics, it goes further, covering off all aspects of the software delivery process, and how they are impacted by adopting a microservice architecture.

This updated edition involves every page of the 1st edition being reviewed and where appropriate reworked, with new topics covered for the first time. This edition will be reflecting the shifts in the use of microservices over the last five years, including an exploration of some of the new technology which has emerged.

Who should read this book

The scope of this book is broad, as the implications of microservice architectures are also broad. As such, it should appeal to people interested in aspects of design, development, deployment, testing, and maintenance of systems.

Those of you who have already embarked on the journey toward finer-grained architectures, whether for a greenfield application or as part of decomposing an existing, more monolithic system, will find plenty of practical advice to help you. It will also help those of you who want to know what all the fuss is about, so that you can determine whether microservices are right for you.

An overview of Mitroservices and best development practices

Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2022

Verified Purchase

The book is interesting although it is not just about microservices. Rather, it covers a lot of ground on best development approaches. All in all, this is a good thing, but my intention when buying the book was to concentrate on microservices development. Some might say that the book looks through the prism of microservices while discussing many obstacles with development and they will be right as well. I cannot argue that the broad view has many benefits, so I recommend the book to those who want to see the wider picture of how things are done.

Pretty good

The good:
Very good in terms of coverage, touches on aspects like team structure, organization and UI, good references to other books if you want to go deeper on some subjects

The bad:
Half a star off since it's expensive even if the content is great, another half star off due to the subpar reading experience on a desktop with Kindle cloud reader at the time I went through this book - when I pay top dollar I expect an excellent reading experience regardless of the device I'm using

Must read for microservice practitioners

Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

I've worked on microservices for ~4 years. We've had a lot of problems with our initial decisions based on what we thought we best practices at the time; this book offered solutions and guidance that conformed to the types of ideas the team has batted around. I expect the concepts to be of immediate use in improving how we think about microservices and how we implement them.

Great technical content and well written book

Reviewed in Germany on August 24, 2023

Verified Purchase

It is a joy for me to read this book. It covers a lot of aspects of the Microservice oriented architecture not only pros and cons but also practical advises where it is suitable for usage and where other design approaches might be a better fit. This all is spiced with a nice sense of humor.

Really readable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 1, 2023

Verified Purchase

Arrived today. Read 2 chapters, chapter 1 of which I had little knowledge and a later chapter I have deep knowledge on. Both just as readable and lays out the “point”. The author has laid out the pros and cons of micro services. I’d leaning away from the approach (that’s ok! As the author makes clear) for my use case.

Returned as not what expected

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 27, 2022

Verified Purchase

I've given it 4 stars even though I returned it and you probably expect me to give it one star. The problem is I'm not sure if the book is at fault or my expectations of the book are at fault. Let me explain why I returned it.

My expectations:-
I thought the book would be a great tutorial on building Microservices and take me on a journey of designing and building actual Microservices through examples and explanations.

The reality:-
The book unfortunately for me reads like a doctor's thesis on Microservices without giving any clear instructions for a beginner on how to go about getting started. It was of no use to me.

My feedback :-
Building Microservices is probably not the best title for this book, since so many O'Reilly books have been working tutorials. I feel this one set the wrong expectations. It probably should have been called Design Principles for Microservices Architects.

In other words if you are already building Microservices, this book would give you more insight and advice on what you're already doing.

What I needed was a step by step primer on building Microservices as a novice with some practical examples that by the end of the book I'd have a working application or service example built using Microservices.

Ultimately this book wasn't for me and I returned it.

I hope this helps anyone else and is a fair review.

Scorrevole, ottimi punti di vista e aggiornato

Reviewed in Italy on October 24, 2021

Verified Purchase

Il libro descrive gli aspetti fondamentali di quello che è il design dei microservizi.
La versione aggiornata approfondisce aspetti divenuti importanti con lo sviluppo delle tecnologie e propone punti di vista differenti con pro e contro. Ci sono molti suggerimenti ad eventuali approfondimenti e molti suggerimenti su quali tecnologie adottare nel caso in cui si decida di scegliere una strada piuttosto che un'altra. Adatto a chi (come me) si approccia ad un mondo pratico dello sviluppo dei microservizi conoscendo solo teorie di base
