In this last part of the tutorial series, we’re going to wrap up the microservice architecture that we created using Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. This post will not have any tutorial steps as we have completed that with part 6.
Overview
In this tutorial series, we went through and created the following services that helped to form our fairly simple microservice architecture:
- Config server
- Discovery service
- Proxy/API gateway service
- Business domain services
- General service
- Minnesota service
Hopefully you were able to see how the data flows between the different services while working on this tutorial series.
Since this was a fairly simple setup for a microservice architecture, we weren’t using technologies like containerization like Docker or container orchestration like Kubernetes. The next steps would be to containerize our services and put it up on a Kubernetes cluster so that we can automate the deployment instead of manually starting/stopping them through the IDE.
Thank you for taking a look at this tutorial series and hopefully it helped a little bit. Feel free to contact me via LinkedIn or through the contact page.
