Microservices Architecture Walkthrough

KRW 890,000 · informational list price

Trace requests across services with contracts, resilience patterns, and observability that stay maintainable.

You stand up a small constellation of Spring Boot services behind an edge gateway, practice synchronous and asynchronous boundaries, and compare choreography versus orchestration with honest trade-offs. Emphasis is on team workflows, not buzzwords.

What you build and study

  • Gateway routing with rate limits
  • Resilience4j bulkheads and fallbacks
  • Outbox pattern sketch with tests
  • Distributed tracing with consistent trace IDs
  • Configuration drift checks between services
  • Local stack with Compose profiles
  • Operational runbooks for failure drills

Outcomes

  • Diagram your own service boundaries
  • Pick resilience tools with explicit reasoning
  • Prepare an onboarding brief for new teammates

Mentor

Hana Seo

Former platform engineer; focuses on readable service boundaries.

Questions

We discuss deployment targets conceptually, but homework runs on Docker Compose to keep laptops light.

Recent reflections

  • “The outbox sketch forced conversations we avoided for months.”
