Come Shop With Me: Discovering Microservices One Store at a Time (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798336764147)

All explained through a shopping mall analogy -
because microservices are basically stores with APIs

What You'll Dive Into This Book:

Architectural Odyssey
Travel from monoliths to microservices - kind of like upgrading from a studio apartment to having a house where every room complains independently.

Skyward Clouds: Insights into Main Models
IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, on-prem... finally explained in a way that won't make you feel like the cloud is just someone else's computer (even if... it is).

Building Tools: The Spring Way
Why Spring became the framework equivalent of "it just works" - auto-magical wiring so you write less boilerplate and more code that actually matters.

Microservices Navigating: Four Key Principles Unveiled
Loose coupling, configuration, service discovery, monitoring - basically how to build systems that don't panic the moment one service goes for a coffee break.

Scaling the Heights
Horizontal vs vertical scaling, and why "just add more servers" is not an actual strategy (unless you like burning money).

The Resilient Microservice
Circuit breakers, bulkheads, fallbacks - because things WILL go wrong, and it's better to plan for disaster than to pretend it won't happen in production.

Communicating in Microservices
Synchronous vs asynchronous - sometimes you need an instant reply, and sometimes you throw a message into a queue and hope someone deals with it before lunch.

Managing Databases in Microservices
Every service owns its own data. Which sounds great... until someone tries to run a cross-service report and chaos breaks loose.

Behind the Scenes: Ensuring Visibility
Logging, monitoring, alerts, tracing - aka "how not to spend half your on-call shift saying: but it works on my machine."

Lock and Key: Securing Microservices with OAuth 2.0
Tokens, scopes, roles, flows - finally understand OAuth without crying, or watching another 48-minute confusing tutorial on YouTube.
