Nanoservices and Microservices with Java

Nanoservices are smaller than Microservices. This presentation shows how technologies like Amazon Lambda, OSGi and Java EE can be used to enable such small services.

4. Microservice Definition
5. Server Server Microservices: Definition > Independent deployment units > Separate VM / process > Any technology > Any infrastructure Micro Service Micro Service
6. Microservices= Independent Deployment Units
7. Components Collaborate Micro Service Micro Service Link Data Replication REST Messaging
8. Online Shop Order Catalog Search Billing Customer HTML / HTTP
9. Online Shop Elasticsearch Spring Batch Oracle Spring MVC MongoDB Order Catalog Search Billing
10. Microservices Stack
11. Docker > Linux (soon Windows) > Shared kernel > Filesystem just stores diffs > Extremely light weight > Can run in cluster (e.g. Kubernetes, Mesosphere etc)
12. Spring Boot > One build file > One Java class > = REST service + embedded Tomcat > Deploy: One Java Fat JARs > Alternatives: Dropwizard, Wildfly Swarm… > https://github.com/ewolff/spring-boot-demos
13. Microservice = Fat JAR + Java EE programming model possible!
14. Ideal size of a Microservice Team size Modularization Infrastructure Distributed Communication No absolute value! Replaceability Microservice Size
15. Nanoservices
16. Nanoservices?
17. Nanoservices? #SRSLY?
18. #SRSLY? YES!
19. Nanoservices!= Microservices
20. Nanoservices< Microservices
21. Ideal size of a Microservice Team size Modularization Infrastructure Distributed Communication No absolute value! Replaceability Microservice Size
22. Microservices= Independent Deployment Units
23. Nanoservices= Independent Deployment Units
24. Nanoservices use more light weight technologies
25. Amazon Lambda
26. Amazon Lambda > Service in the Amazon Cloud > Allows you to install individual functions > Java, JavaScript, Python
27. Lambda Function Command Line S3 Event Kinesis Stream DynamoDB SNS: Simple Notification Service SES: Simple EMail Service Cognito CloudWatch CloudFormation API Gateway (e.g. REST) Scheduled Events
28. Amazon Lambda adds e.g. trigger to DynamoDB.
29. Amazon Lambda + API Gateway = REST services.
30. public class Main { public String myHandler(int myCount, Context context) { LambdaLogger logger = context.getLogger(); logger.log("received : " + myCount); return "Hi"+myCount; } }
31. Deploy
32. Deploy
33. Invoke
36. Amazon Lambda vs. PaaS > Commercial model: Pay-per-call > Fine grained (e.g. database trigger, HTTP GET) > First million requests FREE! > Can edit Python / JavaScript function in the browser
37. Amazon Lambda > Can add any other Amazon Service to complete the system > i.e. Beanstalk PaaS, EC2 IaaS … > Or databased (DynamoDB, RDS...)
38. OSGi
39. OSGi: Bundles > Partition system into – "bundles” > Bundles can be installed, started, stopped, uninstalled and updated > ...at runtime
40. OSGi: Code Sharing > Bundles can export and import packages > Updating code requires other bundles to start fresh
41. OSGi: Services > Bundles can publish services… dynamically! > Service = Java Object > Service Registry allows other bundles to consume services > Services come and go at runtime > Quite easy with OSGi Blueprints or OSGi Declarative Services
42. Calling Bundle Bundle (interface code) Bundle (implementation and service) Service Package (interface code) Package (interface code) Update to service in running application
43. (Almost) Independent Deployment Units
44. Java EE
45. Java EE > JARs e.g. for EJBs > WARs e.g. for web application > EARs for JARs and WARs > Completely separated code > …unlike OSGi
46. Java EE > Relevant: Deployment model > i.e. application server > Not programming model
47. Java EE Nanoservices? > Local calls not possible > No shared code e.g. for interfaces
48. Tomcat Java EE Server order.war customer.war catalog.war Customer
49. (Almost) Independent Deployment Units
50. Comparison
51. Independent Deployment > THE feature of Micro-/Nanoservices > Simplifies to put new features in production > Docker Fat JAR: ++ > Amazon Lambda: ++ > OSGi: + Restart the whole JVM? > Java EE: + Restart the whole JVM?
52. Benefits of Nanoservices
53. Effort per Service > How hard is it to create another service? > All: Create another project/JAR/WAR > Amazon Lambda: ++ > OSGi: ++ > Java EE: ++ > Docker Fat JAR : - (Docker container etc)
54. Cost per Service > Hardware, software cost > Amazon Lambda: ++ > OSGi: ++ > Java EE: ++ > Docker Fat JAR: -- (need Docker container etc, separat JVM Heap)
55. Local Communcation > Call without network stack > Docker Fat JAR : -- > Amazon Lambda: -- > OSGi: ++ > Java EE: --
56. Challenges of Nanoservices
57. Independent Scaling > Start more instances of a single service > Docker Fat JAR: ++ > Amazon Lambda: ++ > OSGi: ? > Java EE: --
58. Isolation > CPU / Memory consumption/crash influences other services > Docker Fat JAR: ++ > Amazon Lambda: ++ > OSGi: -- > Java EE: --
59. Resilience & Isolation > Resilience: System can handle crash of other services > Needs isolation > Problem for OSGi/Java EE
60. Technology Freedom > Using different technologies > Docker Fat JAR: ++ (whatever) > Amazon Lambda: + (Java, JavaScript, Python) > OSGi: -- (Java) > Java EE: -- (Java)
61. Conclusion
62. Nanoservices!= Microservices
63. Nanoservices< Microservices
64. Conclusion > Nanoservice technologies compromise > …to allow smaller services > …to allow local communication > OSGi and Java EE deployment model don’t fully support independent deployment > …might therefore not be “true” Nanoservices
65. Conclusion > OSGi and Java EE weak concerning > Independent scaling > Isolation > Technology freedom > Amazon Lambda a lot stronger
66. Might also consider… > Vert.x: polyglot, distributed and module concept > Erlang: support update to running system and processes in other languages
