Microservices development challenges
• How do I observe the calls and events between my services to diagnose issues in
production?

• How do I discover other services and call methods on them?

• How do I integrate with external systems that my app has to react and respond to?

• How do I create event driven apps which reliably send events from one service to another?

• How do I create long running, stateful services that can recover from failures?

• How do I secure communication between services?

• How do I prevent committing to a technology early and have the flexibility to swap out an
alternative based on project or environment changes?
