  • A microservices architecture is a particular case of a service-oriented architecture (SOA)
  • What sets microservices apart is the extent to which these modules are interconnected.
  • Every server comprises just one certain business process and never consists of several smaller servers.
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • Microservices also bring a set of additional benefits, such as easier scaling, the possibility to use multiple programming languages and technologies, and others.
  • Java is a frequent choice for building a microservices architecture as it is a mature language tested over decades and has a multitude of microservices-favorable frameworks, such as legendary Spring, Jersey, Play, and others.
  • A monolithic architecture keeps it all simple. An app has just one server and one database.
  • All the connections between units are inside-code calls.
  • split our application into microservices and got a set of units completely independent for deployment and maintenance.
  • Each of microservices responsible for a certain business function communicates either via sync HTTP/REST or async AMQP protocols.
  • ensure seamless communication between newly created distributed components.
  • The gateway became an entry point for all clients’ requests.
  • We also set the Zuul 2 framework for our gateway service so that the application could leverage the benefits of non-blocking HTTP calls.
  • we've implemented the Eureka server as our server discovery that keeps a list of utilized user profile and order servers to help them discover each other.
  • We also have a message broker (RabbitMQ) as an intermediary between the notification server and the rest of the servers to allow async messaging in-between.
  • microservices can definitely help when it comes to creating complex applications that deal with huge loads and need continuous improvement and scaling.

shared by 張 旭 on 05 Jun 15 - No Cached
  • Microservices are a useful architecture, but even their advocates say that using them incurs a significant MicroservicePremium, which means they are only useful with more complex systems.
  • you should build a new application as a monolith initially, even if you think it's likely that it will benefit from a microservices architecture later on.
  • Any refactoring of functionality between services is much harder than it is in a monolith.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • By building a monolith first, you can figure out what the right boundaries are, before a microservices design brushes a layer of treacle over them.
  • The logical way is to design a monolith carefully, paying attention to modularity within the software, both at the API boundaries and how the data is stored.
  • start with a monolith and gradually peel off microservices at the edges
  • Don't be afraid of building a monolith that you will discard, particularly if a monolith can get you to market quickly

docker swarm cluster system

shared by 張 旭 on 07 Sep 18 - No Cached
  • a service is the image for a microservice within the context of some larger application.
  • When you create a service, you specify which container image to use and which commands to execute inside running containers.
  • an overlay network for the service to connect to other services in the swarm
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • In the swarm mode model, each task invokes exactly one container
  • A task is analogous to a “slot” where the scheduler places a container.
  • A task is the atomic unit of scheduling within a swarm.
  • A task is a one-directional mechanism. It progresses monotonically through a series of states: assigned, prepared, running, etc.
  • Docker swarm mode is a general purpose scheduler and orchestrator.
  • Hypothetically, you could implement other types of tasks such as virtual machine tasks or non-containerized process tasks.
  • If all nodes are paused or drained, and you create a service, it is pending until a node becomes available.
  • reserve a specific amount of memory for a service.
  • impose placement constraints on the service
  • As the administrator of a swarm, you declare the desired state of your swarm, and the manager works with the nodes in the swarm to create that state.
  • two types of service deployments, replicated and global.
  • A global service is a service that runs one task on every node.
  • Good candidates for global services are monitoring agents, an anti-virus scanners or other types of containers that you want to run on every node in the swarm.

shared by chiehting on 06 Mar 19 - No Cached
  • Best Practices for Kubernetes
  • #1: Building Containers
  • Don’t Trust Arbitrary Base Images!
  • ...29 more annotations...
  • There’s a lot wrong with this: you could be using the wrong version of code that has exploits, has a bug in it, or worse it could have malware bundled in on purpose—you just don’t know.
  • Keep Base Images Small
  • Node.js for example, it includes an extra 600MB of libraries you don’t need.
  • Use the Builder Pattern
  • #2: Container Internals
  • Use a Non-Root User Inside the Container
  • Make the File System Read-Only
  • One Process per Container
  • Don’t Restart on Failure. Crash Cleanly Instead.
  • Log Everything to stdout and stderr
  • #3: Deployments
  • Use the “Record” Option for Easier Rollbacks
  • Use Plenty of Descriptive Labels
  • Use Sidecars for Proxies, Watchers, Etc.
  • Don’t Use Sidecars for Bootstrapping!
  • Don’t Use :Latest or No Tag
  • Readiness and Liveness Probes are Your Friend
  • #4: Services
  • Don’t Use type: LoadBalancer
  • Type: Nodeport Can Be “Good Enough”
  • Use Static IPs They Are Free!
  • Map External Services to Internal Ones
  • #5: Application Architecture
  • Use Helm Charts
  • All Downstream Dependencies Are Unreliable
  • Use Weave Cloud
  • Make Sure Your Microservices Aren’t Too Micro
  • Use Namespaces to Split Up Your Cluster
  • Role-Based Access Control

devops deploy system micro service

shared by 張 旭 on 23 Nov 18 - No Cached
  • using a service-oriented architecture and microservices approach, developers can design a code base to be modular.
  • Modern applications are often distributed and cloud-based
  • different release cycles for different components
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • the abstraction of the infrastructure layer, which is now considered code. Deployment of a new application may require the deployment of new infrastructure code as well.
  • "big bang" deployments update whole or large parts of an application in one fell swoop.
  • Big bang deployments required the business to conduct extensive development and testing before release, often associated with the "waterfall model" of large sequential releases.
  • Rollbacks are often costly, time-consuming, or even impossible.
  • In a rolling deployment, an application’s new version gradually replaces the old one.
  • new and old versions will coexist without affecting functionality or user experience.
  • Each container is modified to download the latest image from the app vendor’s site.
  • two identical production environments work in parallel.
  • Once the testing results are successful, application traffic is routed from blue to green.
  • In a blue-green deployment, both systems use the same persistence layer or database back end.
  • You can use the primary database by blue for write operations and use the secondary by green for read operations.
  • Blue-green deployments rely on traffic routing.
  • long TTL values can delay these changes.
  • The main challenge of canary deployment is to devise a way to route some users to the new application.
  • Using an application logic to unlock new features to specific users and groups.
  • With CD, the CI-built code artifact is packaged and always ready to be deployed in one or more environments.
  • Use Build Automation tools to automate environment builds
  • Use configuration management tools
  • Enable automated rollbacks for deployments
  • An application performance monitoring (APM) tool can help your team monitor critical performance metrics including server response times after deployments.

aws HA proxy

shared by 張 旭 on 06 Apr 21 - No Cached
  • If you use AWS, you have two load-balancing options: ELB and ALB.
  • An ELB is a software-based load balancer which can be set up and configured in front of a collection of AWS Elastic Compute (EC2) instances.
  • The load balancer serves as a single entry point for consumers of the EC2 instances and distributes incoming traffic across all machines available to receive requests.
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • the ELB also performs a vital role in improving the fault tolerance of the services which it fronts.
  • he Open Systems Interconnection Model, or OSI Model, is a conceptual model which is used to facilitate communications between different computing systems.
  • Layer 1 is the physical layer, and represents the physical medium across which the request is sent.
  • Layer 2 describes the data link layer
  • Layer 3 (the network layer)
  • Layer 7, which serves the application layer.
  • The Classic ELB operates at Layer 4. Layer 4 represents the transport layer, and is controlled by the protocol being used to transmit the request.
  • A network device, of which the Classic ELB is an example, reads the protocol and port of the incoming request, and then routes it to one or more backend servers.
  • the ALB operates at Layer 7. Layer 7 represents the application layer, and as such allows for the redirection of traffic based on the content of the request.
  • Whereas a request to a specific URL backed by a Classic ELB would only enable routing to a particular pool of homogeneous servers, the ALB can route based on the content of the URL, and direct to a specific subgroup of backing servers existing in a heterogeneous collection registered with the load balancer.
  • The Classic ELB is a simple load balancer, is easy to configure
  • As organizations move towards microservice architecture or adopt a container-based infrastructure, the ability to merely map a single address to a specific service becomes more complicated and harder to maintain.
  • the ALB manages routing based on user-defined rules.
  • oute traffic to different services based on either the host or the content of the path contained within that URL.

docker container devops

shared by 張 旭 on 28 Jun 21 - No Cached
  • LXC (LinuX Containers) is a OS-level virtualization technology that allows creation and running of multiple isolated Linux virtual environments (VE) on a single control host.
  • Docker, previously called dotCloud, was started as a side project and only open-sourced in 2013. It is really an extension of LXC’s capabilities.
  • run processes in isolation.
  • ...35 more annotations...
  • Docker is developed in the Go language and utilizes LXC, cgroups, and the Linux kernel itself. Since it’s based on LXC, a Docker container does not include a separate operating system; instead it relies on the operating system’s own functionality as provided by the underlying infrastructure.
  • Docker acts as a portable container engine, packaging the application and all its dependencies in a virtual container that can run on any Linux server.
  • a VE there is no preloaded emulation manager software as in a VM.
  • In a VE, the application (or OS) is spawned in a container and runs with no added overhead, except for a usually minuscule VE initialization process.
  • LXC will boast bare metal performance characteristics because it only packages the needed applications.
  • the OS is also just another application that can be packaged too.
  • a VM, which packages the entire OS and machine setup, including hard drive, virtual processors and network interfaces. The resulting bloated mass usually takes a long time to boot and consumes a lot of CPU and RAM.
  • don’t offer some other neat features of VM’s such as IaaS setups and live migration.
  • LXC as supercharged chroot on Linux. It allows you to not only isolate applications, but even the entire OS.
  • Libvirt, which allows the use of containers through the LXC driver by connecting to 'lxc:///'.
  • 'LXC', is not compatible with libvirt, but is more flexible with more userspace tools.
  • Portable deployment across machines
  • Versioning: Docker includes git-like capabilities for tracking successive versions of a container
  • Component reuse: Docker allows building or stacking of already created packages.
  • Shared libraries: There is already a public registry (http://index.docker.io/ ) where thousands have already uploaded the useful containers they have created.
  • Docker taking the devops world by storm since its launch back in 2013.
  • LXC, while older, has not been as popular with developers as Docker has proven to be
  • LXC having a focus on sys admins that’s similar to what solutions like the Solaris operating system, with its Solaris Zones, Linux OpenVZ, and FreeBSD, with its BSD Jails virtualization system
  • it started out being built on top of LXC, Docker later moved beyond LXC containers to its own execution environment called libcontainer.
  • Unlike LXC, which launches an operating system init for each container, Docker provides one OS environment, supplied by the Docker Engine
  • LXC tooling sticks close to what system administrators running bare metal servers are used to
  • The LXC command line provides essential commands that cover routine management tasks, including the creation, launch, and deletion of LXC containers.
  • Docker containers aim to be even lighter weight in order to support the fast, highly scalable, deployment of applications with microservice architecture.
  • With backing from Canonical, LXC and LXD have an ecosystem tightly bound to the rest of the open source Linux community.
  • Docker Swarm
  • Docker Trusted Registry
  • Docker Compose
  • Docker Machine
  • Kubernetes facilitates the deployment of containers in your data center by representing a cluster of servers as a single system.
  • Swarm is Docker’s clustering, scheduling and orchestration tool for managing a cluster of Docker hosts. 
  • rkt is a security minded container engine that uses KVM for VM-based isolation and packs other enhanced security features. 
  • Apache Mesos can run different kinds of distributed jobs, including containers. 
  • Elastic Container Service is Amazon’s service for running and orchestrating containerized applications on AWS
  • LXC offers the advantages of a VE on Linux, mainly the ability to isolate your own private workloads from one another. It is a cheaper and faster solution to implement than a VM, but doing so requires a bit of extra learning and expertise.
  • Docker is a significant improvement of LXC’s capabilities.
