Migration to microservices
We have migrated monolithic applications to microservices many times, using a progressive and incremental approach.
We can help you split the monolith, or maybe just advice you during this journey.
Development and consulting in microservices
Chopping a single large application (monolith) into microservices provides you two immediate benefits:
- Agility
- Scalability
The following items are clear indicators that you are running issues related to scalability or agility:
| Agility | Scalability |
|---|---|
| You are not releasing several times per week | The system is very rigid |
| After a deploy, the application has a long warm-up time | The system goes down because of a specific functionality |
| Developers find the code difficult to understand | You are increasing the hardware, but the performance is still bad |
| The code has too much dependencies | The system presents locks or race conditions |
| Developers are fixing conflicts all the time | The system is fragile and must be handled very carefully |
| Integration tests are a nightmare | Some processes eat up all machines resources |
| All problems are solved with the same tool/framework | Performance of the sytem in regression |
| “Pray and push” deploys | You need to scale because of a single functionality |
| New features take a lot of time | Unclear linking between components |
Having smaller pieces facilitates the speed of development and gives you peace of mind when it comes to testing new features or making infrastructure changes.
We can help you with:
- Development of microservices
- Design of the microservices architecture and migration plan
- Deployment of microservices in the cloud
- Continuous integration
- Communication between services and persistence
