Springboot - Eureka - registry

Eureka is a registry that helps with service registration and discovery. It is a central component of the microservices ecosystem, allowing service instances to register themselves and facilitating service discovery.

Eureka Server is a RESTful service that maintains a registry of all service instances. It provides a way for services to register themselves and for clients to discover the location of a service.

Eureka Client is a library that interacts with the Eureka Server to register, deregister, and discover other services.

Eureka is a key component of the Spring Cloud Netflix project, which provides a set of tools for building microservices.

Following are the benefits of using Eureka in Spring Boot:

  • Service Discovery: Eureka helps in discovering services in a distributed system.
  • High Availability: Eureka provides high availability by maintaining a registry of all service instances.
  • Load Balancing: Eureka can be used to implement load balancing between service instances.
  • Failure Detection: Eureka can detect failures of service instances and remove them from the registry.
  • Client Side Caching: Eureka clients can cache the registry information to improve performance.

Here are some of the challenges you might face while using Eureka:

  • Complexity: Eureka can be complex to set up and configure.
  • Performance: Eureka can have a performance impact on your system.
  • Security: Eureka needs to be properly secured to prevent unauthorized access.

Overall, Eureka is a powerful tool that can help you build and manage microservices. However, it is important to be aware of the challenges involved in using it.

New way of product development

Today is the era of fast-paced world and competitive world. Companies are realizing that the old sequential approach to developing new products won’t get the job done and product can’t be reached to market when compared to competitors. The 4 stages of product development are as follows – R&D, Growth, Maturation, and Decline. Instead of sequential approach, companies are using holistic approach – as in rugby game, the ball gets passed within the team as it moves as a unit up the field. This holistic approach has six characteristics: 1)     Build-in-instability 2)   Self-organizing project teams 3)   Overlapping development phases 4)   Multi-learning 5)   Subtle (very clear and strong) control 6)   Organizational change to explore and learning The above six characteristics forming a fast and flexible process for new product development with advantage of act as a change agent, creative, market driven ideas, flexi...

Product Manager vs Product Owner

Both the product manager and the product owner work towards a common goal, to build and improve products that create meaningful value for customers and all stakeholders within the company. This usually happens by delivering and optimizing product features. Product Manager Product Owner The product manager discovers what users need, prioritizes what to build next, and rallies the team around a product roadmap. The product owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product by creating and managing the product backlog. This person creates user stories for the development team and communicates the voice of the customer in the Scrum process.      Product Manager and Product Owner's work on below vacuum. Product manager focus on: Business Strategy Long term Product Vision Long term Product Strategy Product Roadmap Alignment with Product Owner Product owner focus on: Release Plan (Product Backlog ie: ...

Empiricism (Scrum)

Empiricism asserts that knowledge comes from experience and making decisions based on what is observed. Pillars of  Empiricism . Various practices exist to forecast progress, like burn-downs, burn-ups, or cumulative flows. While proven useful, these do not replace the importance of empiricism . In complex environments, what will happen is unknown. Only what has already happened may be used for forward-looking decision making. Each artifact contains a commitment to ensure it provides information that enhances transparency and focus against which progress can be measured: ● For the Product Backlog it is the Product Goal. ● For the Sprint Backlog it is the Sprint Goal. ● For the Increment it is the Definition of Done. These commitments exist to reinforce empiricism . The sum of the Increments is presented at the Sprint Review thus supporting empiricism .
