Tech Trek: A Software Engineer's Guide to Code and Beyond

In my previous blog, I have already talked about Netflix Hystrix Circuit Breaker Microservices and explained it by creating two applications i.e. Product Service and Price Service. In this post, I’ll use both applications to explain what is the Service Registry and Discovery Server. Circuit Breaker and Microservices Architecture Netflix Hystrix Circuit Breaker   What is Service Registry and Discovery and why do we need it in the first place? In our monolithic application, mostly service invoke one another through language methods or procedure calls and even in traditional distributed system deployment, services run at fixed, well-known locations (hosts and ports) and so can easily call one another using HTTP/REST. Over here the network locations of service instances are relatively static. With the microservice architecture system, this is a much more difficult problem as service instances have dynamically assigned network locations. Service instances change dynamicall...

Netflix Hystrix Circuit Breaker In one of my previous blogs, I have already discussed the Circuit breaker pattern and its usage, Today, we will see how can we implement it in our application using Spring Cloud Netflix Hystrix . In this document, I’ll walk you through the process of applying circuit breakers to potentially-failing method calls using the Netflix Hystrix fault tolerance library. Hystrix is watching methods for failing calls to related services. If there is such a failure, it will open the circuit and forward the call to a fallback method. To understand it in a better way, I’ll take the same problem statement that I have already discussed in my previous blog i.e. E-commerce Portal.  I am assuming you must be aware of Spring boot framework as this implementation is completely based on it. As per problem statement, we need two applications i.e. Product Service & Price Service but in this tutorial, I’ll talk about just Product Service as Price Service ...

Circuit Breaker and Microservices Architecture  In this article, I’ll talk about the Circuit Breaker pattern which is widely used in Microservices but before jumping to Circuit breaker design pattern or microservices. Let’s first understand the requirement so that you should know where we can use it in our application and Of Couse, How 😊 Let’s understand it with the real scenario as It’s already June month and we know there are so many online summer sales is going to start where they will offer you a various type of deals on their products. And as we know most of the online portal has upgraded their application arch from Monolithic design to Microservices like Amazon, Flipkart, Snapdeal and so on and with that their each service will be running as an independent micro-services in the cloud like Authentication Service using which a user can be logged in to the application, Product Detail Service, Billing Service, Price Service, Card Services, etc. Now just imagine the sce...
