Rapid Microservice Development with Project Templates
#1about 3 minutes
Overview of a modern microservice architecture
A high-level look at a typical software architecture using microservices for backend tasks and interacting with external services.
#2about 3 minutes
Separating core functionality from boilerplate code
Microservices consist of unique business logic and common boilerplate elements like CI/CD, deployment, and monitoring, which can be abstracted into a template.
#3about 5 minutes
Creating a new microservice from a template
A live demonstration shows how to use the `craft` command-line tool and a questionnaire to rapidly generate a new microservice project.
#4about 2 minutes
Reviewing the generated project and CI/CD pipeline
An exploration of the pre-configured project structure, including semantic versioning, Helm charts, and a full CI/CD pipeline for linting, building, and testing.
#5about 2 minutes
The challenge of keeping microservices up to date
As the base template evolves with new best practices, a mechanism is needed to propagate these updates to existing microservices without overwriting custom logic.
#6about 3 minutes
Applying template updates to an existing service
A demonstration of the `craft update` command, which merges changes from the latest template version into an existing microservice project.
#7about 4 minutes
Key benefits of using project templates
Project templates reduce repetitive work, serve as living documentation for best practices, and centralize infrastructure improvements while allowing services to remain decoupled.
