Decomposition patterns

• Decompose by business capability
• Decompose by subdomain

Sub Domains

• Records Management (Document Repository)
• User Management (Users/Roles/Permissions)
• Workflow (Customizable Workflow)
• Master Data Management (Contract/Opportunity etc.)

Steps

1. Use app credential to get/create/update/remove records instead of user credential in records management
2. Abstract record entities with relationship with actual records (record unique key and uri)
3. Abstract master entities relationship with record entities. e.g. Contract, Opportunity.
4. Create customizable workflow for specific master entity. e.g. specific type of Contract.
5. Create users with assigned roles (generic for specific type of master entity) and permissions (for specific record)

Architecture Styles

• Microservices Architecture
• Event-Driven Architecture

Microservices

Benefits:

• Agility. Because microservices are deployed independently, it's easier to manage bug fixes and feature releases.
• Small, focused teams. A microservice should be small enough that a single feature team can build, test, and deploy it. Small team sizes promote greater agility.
• Small code base. In a monolithic application, there is a tendency over time for code dependencies to become tangled Adding a new feature requires touching code in a lot of places. By not sharing code or data stores, a microservices architecture minimizes dependencies, and that makes it easier to add new features.
• Mix of technologies. Teams can pick the technology that best fits their service, using a mix of technology stacks as appropriate.
• Fault isolation. If an individual microservice becomes unavailable, it won't disrupt the entire application, as long as any upstream microservices are designed to handle faults correctly (for example, by implementing circuit breaking).
• Scalability. Services can be scaled independently, letting you scale out subsystems that require more resources, without scaling out the entire application.
• Data isolation. It is much easier to perform schema updates, because only a single microservice is affected.

There are three common patterns that we observe when our customers build microservices: API driven, event driven, and data streaming.

Microservices architectures are not a completely new approach to software engineering, but rather a combination of various successful and proven concepts such as:

• Agile software development
• Service-oriented architectures
• API-first design
• Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD)

• Selecting the Right Database for Your Microservices

Microservices

• Decoupling of services
• Data store autonomy
• Miniaturized development
• Testing setup
• Facilitate faster time-to-market

How to choose the right data store for your miceroservices?

• Performance

• Reliability

• Data modeling

For read/write operations-per-second

• Very high — Greater than one million
• High — Between 500,000 and one million
• Moderate — Between 10,000 and 500,000
• Low — Less than 10,000

For latency

• Low — Less than one millisecond
• Moderate — one to 10 milliseconds
• High — Greater than 10 milliseconds

MMR Technical Pain Points

• Performance Issues

  High volume of data updates have impact on MMR performance.

• Data Gap on Opportunity data

  Opportunity Data in MMR are from Sales ODS with 24 to 48 hours of delay from source application (MMS). If the Opportunity is not yet available in MMR, users would not be able to perform Opportunity submissions.

  Moreover, Sales ODS does not deliver updates for Opportunities that are not active in the current fiscal year. This impacts company code mapping for AIL reports.

• Security Model

  Security Implementation in MMR is very granular.

• Vendor Limitations and Product Maintenance

  Requires VM with desktop experience (does not support CORE). App teams need to raise exception requests

  since the vendor does not support cloud native offerings yet.Time to upgrade product version would take 3-6 months.

• Data Replication

  MMR Data (both metadata and actual documents) are now replicated on other apps like SEAL and ALICE (like everything).

  • Pattern: Microservice Architecture

What are microservices?

Microservices - also known as the microservice architecture - is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of services that are:

• Highly maintainable and testable
• Loosely coupled
• Independently deployable
• Organized around business capabilities
• Owned by a small team

The microservice architecture enables the rapid, frequent and reliable delivery of large, complex applications. It also enables an organization to evolve its technology stack.

The pattern language is your guide

The microservice architecture is not a silver bullet. It has several drawbacks. Moreover, when using this architecture there are numerous issues that you must address.

The microservice architecture pattern language is a collection of patterns for applying the microservice architecture. It has two goals:

1. The pattern language enables you to decide whether microservices are a good fit for your application.
2. The pattern language enables you to use the microservice architecture successfully.

A good starting point is the Monolithic Architecture pattern, which is the traditional architectural style that is still a good choice for many applications. It does, however, have numerous limitations and issues and so a better choice for large/complex applications is the Microservice architecture pattern.

Avoid the potholes

Thinking of migrating to the microservice architecture? If so, you should look at this presentation about the potholes in the road from monolithic hell and read this series of blog posts about anti-patterns and how to avoid them.

Assess your architecture

If you have built an application with the microservice architecture then take a look at the Microservices Assessment Platform. The platform assesses what you have built and identifies what needs to be improved. It reduce architectural and organizational risk and maximizes the benefits of the microservice architecture.

1. Key software delivery outcomes

2. Service design

   A service is an independently deployable, loosely coupled, component with well-defined and focussed responsibilities.

3. Externalized configuration

4. Inter-service communication

   Services must communicate securely using IPC mechanisms that allow the API to evolve. In addition, a service that uses RPC must use a service discovery mechanism.

5. Service reliability

6. Deployment/Release

7. Observability
