Micro-Frontends Discovery
#1about 3 minutes
The challenge of deploying distributed frontends
Traditional deployment strategies for monoliths fail for micro-frontends, which require a solution for dynamic discovery across multiple environments.
#2about 2 minutes
Applying the service discovery pattern to frontends
The service discovery pattern, borrowed from backend microservices, decouples the application shell from specific micro-frontend versions by using a central registry.
#3about 1 minute
Enabling advanced deployment strategies for safety
Using a discovery service at the network level allows for safe deployment strategies like blue-green and canary releases to de-risk production changes.
#4about 1 minute
Creating a standard for micro-frontend metadata
A community collaboration resulted in a standard, framework-agnostic JSON schema to define and discover micro-frontends consistently.
#5about 2 minutes
A deep dive into the micro-frontend JSON schema
The schema includes essential fields like URL, version, and integrity, plus a flexible `extras` object for framework-specific needs like preloading chunks.
#6about 2 minutes
Implementing canary releases with the schema
The schema's array structure supports multiple versions, and an optional deployment object allows for defining precise traffic-splitting rules for canary releases.
#7about 3 minutes
Benefits and pitfalls of the schema-based approach
This approach is extensible and framework-agnostic but requires the configuration to be loaded first and is best implemented on the backend for security.
#8about 2 minutes
An open source serverless implementation on AWS
The MFS Discovery Service is an open-source, serverless tool that provides a ready-to-use implementation of the discovery and deployment patterns on AWS.
#9about 4 minutes
The architecture of the MFS discovery service
The service uses a backend API for CI/CD pipelines to manage deployments and a consumer API for the application shell to fetch the current configuration.
#10about 3 minutes
De-risking deployments to change developer behavior
The discoverability pattern enables safe, granular deployments that build developer confidence and shift the culture from rollbacks to roll-forwards.
