Written by: Electric Bee

Microservices are all the rage right now -- and the industry is still learning, experimenting, and developing patterns, for successfully designing, deploying and managing Microservices in the real world.
Are you considering jumping on the Microservices-wagon? Do Microservices make sense for your particular use case? What are some of the “gotchas” you should be aware of?
This morning on #c9d9 we had experts from popular chat app Kik , SMB SaaS platform Yodle and hosted CI solution Semaphore share their journey and learnings from decomposing their monolithic application into Microservices.
With Microservices, what was once one application, with self-contained processes, is now a complex set of orchestrated services that connect via the network.
Join us on Tuesday, February 23 , to discuss best practices for how you can "Automate all the things" - to tie together and orchestrate the myriad of tools used in your CI, DevOps and Release processes.
