Appendix: Concluding Remarks and Next Steps

Troubleshooting and debugging microservices

Microservices architectures often involve complex distributed systems, making troubleshooting and debugging crucial. Here are strategies and tools specific to NestJS microservices that can help.

Centralized logging

For a centralized logging system, consider the following practices:

Implement structured logging: Use structured logging to make logs easier to parse. Integrate libraries such as winston or bunyan to structure log data.
Log aggregation: Aggregate logs using tools such as ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana) or centralized logging platforms to get a unified view of your system.

Tracing and monitoring

For a better monitoring, consider adding the following components:

Distributed tracing: Integrate tracing tools such as OpenTelemetry or Jaeger to visualize request flows across microservices, helping identify bottlenecks and failures
Metric monitoring: Use monitoring tools such as...
