Database Manipulation in Microservices with Node.js

When working with microservices architecture and Node.js, databases play a crucial role in storing and retrieving data for each service.

We’ll start this chapter by understanding how to work with databases in microservices with Node.js. This involves many concepts and tools, such as database types, database connection, service-specific databases, data models and schemas, API endpoints, error handling, transactions and atomicity, caching, security, testing, monitoring, and logging. Manipulating data in microservices also involves performing Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations on databases or data storage systems. Remember to follow best practices for data security, such as input validation, data encryption, and protecting sensitive data, based on the requirements of your microservices and compliance standards.

By the end of this chapter, you will have learned how to manipulate databases in microservices...
