Microservices in Action

Microservices promise a better way to sustainably deliver business impact. Rather than a single monolithic unit, applications built in this style are composed from loosely-coupled, autonomous services.

Microservices in Action is a practical book about building and deploying microservice-based applications. Written for developers and architects with a solid grasp of service-oriented development, it tackles the challenge of putting microservices into production.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
