Microservice Developer Experience

Peter Elger, nearForm Whilst micro-service based architectures promise many benefits in production, such as rapid continuous deployment cycles, current developer tools are lagging behind. Irrespective of platform our current toolchains are very much oriented around the construction of monolithic application stacks and are unwieldy and cumbersome when applied to micro-service based systems. This talk will demonstrate a dynamic and responsive developer toolchain for micro-services that is more aligned with this architectural style, with live coding examples and deployment through to staging. This talk will cover the tools that nearForm use to develop micro-services in the wild, something we've discovered and iterated on over the last three years.
