There is a lot of chatting going on about the new cool kid on the block - microservices. Though the ideas are actually not that new, this service-oriented approach to system architecture promises great advantages compared to its monolithic counter parts. Unfortunately it seems that many developers get lost in the buzzwords due to a lack of concrete practical examples.
In this session we’d like to show different implementations of microservices on the JVM and their individual benefits. We’ll look at Dropwizard, Spring Boot + Java8 and Play2 + Scala. Doing this the attendees will get an idea of how to get started with microservices, how to slice a «monolithic idea» into vertical services and what the benefits are.
