Change Data Streaming Patterns in Distributed Systems @ jLove 2021

Abstract:

Microservices are one of the big trends in software engineering of the last few years; organizing business functionality in several self-contained, loosely coupled services helps teams to work efficiently, make the most suitable technical decisions, and react quickly to new business requirements.

In this session, we'll discuss and showcase how open-source change data capture (CDC) with Debezium can help developers with typical challenges they often face when working on microservices. Come and join us to learn how to:

* Employ the outbox pattern for reliable, eventually consistent data exchange between microservices, without incurring unsafe dual writes or tight coupling

* Gradually extract microservices from existing monolithic applications, using CDC and the strangler fig pattern

* Coordinate long-running business transactions across multiple services using CDC-based saga orchestration, ensuring such activity gets consistently applied or aborted by all participating services

3. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Open source software engineer at Red Hat ◦ Debezium ◦ Quarkus • Spec Lead for Bean Validation 2.0 • Java Champion • @gunnarmorling Gunnar Morling
4. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Technical Trainer at NETCONOMY • Independent Engineer & Consultant • Confluent Community Catalyst • MongoDB Champion • @hpgrahsl Hans-Peter Grahsl
5. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Taps into TX log to capture INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE events • Propagated to consumers via Apache Kafka and Kafka Connect Debezium — Log-based Change Data Capture
6. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Detour: Data Change Events • Old and new row state • Metadata on table, TX id, etc. • Operation type, timestamp
7. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Old and new row state • Metadata on table, TX id, etc. • Operation type, timestamp Detour: Data Change Events
8. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Old and new row state • Metadata on table, TX id, etc. • Operation type, timestamp Detour: Data Change Events
9. Outbox Pattern
10. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Services need to update their database, • send messages to other services, • and that consistently! The Problem: Microservices Data Exchange
11. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl “Dual writes” are prone to inconsistencies! Outbox Pattern
12. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Outbox Pattern
13. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Outbox Pattern
14. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Outbox Pattern
15. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Outbox Pattern
16. Strangler Fig Pattern
17. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Gradually evolve from old into new • Support temporary coexistence • Avoid big bang cut-over The Problem: Migrating Systems
18. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Strangler Fig Pattern
19. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Strangler Fig Pattern
20. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Strangler Fig Pattern

23. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Strangler Fig Pattern
24. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Strangler Fig Pattern
25. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Incremental migration → “baby steps” • Pause or stop migration without losing spent efforts • Migration steps ideally reversible Rationale: ⚠ minimize risk ⚠ Benefits

29. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl Enhanced CDC Processing
30. Saga Pattern
31. #CDCPatterns @gunnarmorling @hpgrahsl • Multiple services need to act collaboratively to achieve a consistent outcome • Without 2-phase commit protocols • Ensure correctness in case of failures The Problem: Long-running Business Transactions
