Microservices architecture (MSA) is increasingly popular with software architects and engineers as it accelerates software solution design, development, and deployment in a risk-free manner. Placing a software system into a production environment is elegantly simplified and sped up with the use of MSA development platforms, runtime environments, acceleration engines, design patterns, integrated frameworks, and related tools. The MSA ecosystem is expanding with third-party products that automate as many tasks as possible. MSA is being positioned as the enterprise-grade and agile-application design method. This book covers in-depth the features and facilities that make up the MSA ecosystem. Beginning with an overview of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) that covers the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM), and Remote Method Invocation (RMI), the book explains the basic essentials of MSA and the continuous delivery of applications to customers. The book gives software developers insight into: Current and emerging communication modelsKey architectural elements of MSA-based applicationsDesigning efficient APIs for microservicesMSA middleware platforms such as REST, SOAP, Apache Thrift, and gRPCMicroservice discovery and the API gateway Service orchestration and choreography for composing individual services to achieve a useful business process Database transactions in MSA-centric applicationsDesign, composition, security, and deployment patternsMSA securityModernizing legacy applicationsThe book concludes with a chapter on composing and building powerful microservices. With the exponential growth of IoT devices, microservices are being developed and deployed on resource-constrained but resource-intensive devices in order to provide people-centric applications. The book discusses the challenges of these applications. Finally, the book looks at the role of microservices in smart environments and upcoming trends including ubiquitous yet disappearing microservices.

When digitized entities, connected devices and microservices interact purposefully, we end up with a massive amount of multi-structured streaming (real-time) data that is continuously generated by different sources at high speed. Streaming analytics allows the management, monitoring, and real-time analytics of live streaming data. The topic has grown in importance due to the emergence of online analytics and edge and IoT platforms. A real digital transformation is being achieved across industry verticals through meticulous data collection, cleansing and crunching in real time. Capturing and subjecting those value-adding events is considered to be the prime task for achieving trustworthy and timely insights.The authors articulate and accentuate the challenges widely associated with streaming data and analytics, describe data analytics algorithms and approaches, present edge and fog computing concepts and technologies and show how streaming analytics can be accomplished in edge device clouds. They also delineate several industry use cases across cloud system operations in transportation and cyber security and other business domains.The book will be of interest to ICTs industry and academic researchers, scientists and engineers as well as lecturers and advanced students in the fields of data science, cloud/fog/edge architecture, internet of things and artificial intelligence and related fields of applications. It will also be useful to cloud/edge/fog and IoT architects, analytics professionals, IT operations teams and site reliability engineers (SREs).
