About this course
This course develops practical capability in Microservices Architecture. Its course-specific content covers Service boundaries, Communication, Data ownership, Architecture exercise, followed by an applied project focused on decompose and operate services with clear ownership. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with Microservices Architecture or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Working knowledge of software architecture & engineering and practical familiarity with the named platform or subject. Review the course topics before enrolment to confirm the lab starting point.
Decompose and operate services with clear ownership
Deliver decompose and operate services with clear ownership. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
Course content
Course-specific syllabus and practical exercises. Lab release, access arrangements and final delivery scope are confirmed before enrolment.
01Service boundaries
+
- Domain responsibilities and bounded contexts
- Avoiding premature decomposition
Practical exerciseApply service boundaries to the decompose and operate services with clear ownership and capture the validation evidence.
02Communication
+
- REST and asynchronous messaging choices
- Contracts, versioning and compatibility
Practical exerciseApply communication to the decompose and operate services with clear ownership and capture the validation evidence.
03Data ownership
+
- Independent persistence and migration
- Consistency through events and sagas
Practical exerciseApply data ownership to the decompose and operate services with clear ownership and capture the validation evidence.
04Architecture exercise
+
- Design a service map for one workflow
- Trace a change, failure and recovery across boundaries
Practical exerciseApply architecture exercise to the decompose and operate services with clear ownership and capture the validation evidence.
05Applied project: Decompose and operate services with clear ownership
+
- Define inputs, assumptions and acceptance criteria for: Decompose and operate services with clear ownership.
- Implement the project using service boundaries, communication, data ownership, architecture exercise.
Practical exerciseDecompose and operate services with clear ownership.
06Microservices Architecture — validation and review
+
- Demonstrate the completed project against its acceptance criteria.
- Exercise an invalid-input or failure scenario and document the observed result.
Practical exercisepresent the project evidence, limitations and a repeatable handover.
