Summary
- Comprehensive guide to designing distributed systems with service boundaries, communication patterns, and resilience strategies.
- Covers service decomposition by business capability and domain-driven design, with the Strangler Fig pattern for gradual monolith migration Includes synchronous (REST, gRPC) and asynchronous (Kafka, message queues) communication patterns with event-driven architecture examples Provides Saga pattern implementation for distributed transactions with compensating actions and eventual consistency Features resilience patterns including Circuit Breaker, retry with exponential backoff, and bulkhead isolation to prevent cascade failures Includes production-ready Python code examples for API gateways, event buses, saga orchestration, and circuit breaker implementations
