The Anatomy of Cloud Native Systems

In the first chapter, we identified that the promise of cloud-native is the ability for everyday companies to rapidly and continuously deliver innovation, with the confidence that the system will remain stable as it evolves and that it will scale to meet users' demands. Today's users demand far more than in the past. They expect to access applications around the clock from all kinds of devices, with zero downtime and sub-second response times, regardless of their geographic location. If any of these expectations are not met then they will seek out alternatives. Meeting these demands can seem daunting, but cloud-native empowers everyday teams to deliver on this challenge. However, it requires us to approach software architecture with an open mind to new ways of thinking.

In this chapter, we begin our deep dive into the architectural...

Minimize risk by evolving your monolithic applications into distributed cloud-native systems

Discover best practices for applying cloud-native patterns to your enterprise-level cloud applications

Description

Build systems that leverage the benefits of the cloud and applications faster than ever before with cloud-native development. This book focuses on architectural patterns for building highly scalable cloud-native systems. You will learn how the combination of cloud, reactive principles, devops, and automation enable teams to continuously deliver innovation with confidence. Begin by learning the core concepts that make these systems unique. You will explore foundational patterns that turn your database inside out to achieve massive scalability with cloud-native databases. You will also learn how to continuously deliver production code with confidence by shifting deployment and testing all the way to the left and implementing continuous observability in production. There's more—you will also learn how to strangle your monolith and design an evolving cloud-native system. By the end of the book, you will have the ability to create modern cloud-native systems.

What you will learn

Enable massive scaling by turning your database inside out

Unleash flexibility via event streaming

Leverage polyglot persistence and cloud-native databases

Embrace modern continuous delivery and testing techniques

Minimize risk by evolving your monoliths to cloud-native

Apply cloud-native patterns and solve major architectural problems in cloud environment

For anyone new to cloud native architecture and perhaps even those with significant experience, this book is an invaluable resource. The author, John Gilbert, has a fine grained knowledge of cloud native systems and has a real talent for breaking down and presenting that knowledge in a way that is clear, concise, and well organized. As a result, a topic that is hugely complex and difficult to hold in your mind becomes easy to follow and presented in way that leaves no stone unturned.Don’t get me wrong. This book is very dense and the subject matter difficult but the writing style makes it much easier to manage and assimilate.The examples in the book revolve around JavaScript, node, AWS, and Serverless framework, however I think the knowledge is presented in a way that the concepts are universal and could easily be translated to other languages, runtimes, providers etc.If you are using JavaScript, you will get extra little nuggets of wisdom like documenting your API’s using the Typescript interface pattern to make it clearly understood by other teams working with that api.The book covers the whole process of developing cloud native systems that scale globally from design all the way through deployment, testing, monitoring, and even securing your cloud systems. You can use this book as complete reference for the entire lifecycle.A few months from now, if I had an actual paper copy of this book, the binding would be completely cracked and creased from rereading each section as I build my own cloud native applications from scratch.Thanks John, great work!

I've read quite a bit on microservice architecture and cloud and DevOps best practices recently. This book is easily the best I've come across.From the pieces I do have some experience with, the author's advice seems spot on. The author's takes on best practices are justified in clear, jargon-free language. The chapters are all meaty with real world examples. I predict this book going to become my bible as I try to build out our microservices platform on AWS.

The language in this book is full of buzzwords and Jargon that seem to make little sense. Only after spending a considerable amount of time parsing the book can you understand what the author means. Once you understand you realize how poorly written and repetitive the book is.An example: "leverage your cloud providers fully managed cloud native database services. Employ multiple database types within a component as needed to match the components workload characteristics. Choose the database type such as document store blob storage or search on a table by table basis. Each database is dedicated to a specific component and not shared across components. Use the change data capture and life cycle management features and react to the admitted events to trigger intercomponent processing logic. Use the regional replication features to create multi-reasonable deployments as needed."Vs.Use built in cloud-native database services for your components and pick the correct ones for each respective job. Don't allow other services look at databases that don't belong to them.
