Open Source technologies are driving core innovations and revolutionizing the way enterprise platforms are delivered. Microservices architecture has become a critical building block in these platforms. In this session Sreekanth will discuss the challenges faced while adopting open source technologies to build a microservice platform and potential solutions to these challenges. As enterprises evolve, there is an increasing proliferation of open source products, lack of governance around platform architecture and disparity between proposed architecture and realized architecture. Potential solutions are to create pre-defined architecture blueprints based on proposed architecture patterns for specific enterprise needs. Combining these preintegrated blueprints with PaaS capabilities can transform the proposed architecture into a form of configuration artifact – resulting in “Architecture as a Code”. This will also provide the much needed architecture governance and promotes reusable architecture. A potential microservices architecture blueprint based on Spring-boot suite, monitoring and security software all pre-integrated into a deployable unit. Leveraging Kubernetes as underlying container orchestrator, this deployable unit can be provisioned on any platform. Key benefit is the ability to consistently manage/govern the platform in a predictable manner thus improving time to deliver.
