7 important factors for building resilient distributed applications

1. Design the system for fault tolerance: * Design the system with redundancy and replicas. * Use distributed algorithms to minimize single points of failure. * Use distributed state machines to ensure consistent behavior across nodes. * Develop a robust monitoring system to detect and respond to faults in real time. 2. Implement a

How to address the complexities of Micro services Architecture

What is Micro services Architecture? Micro services Architecture is a software architecture pattern that structures an application as a collection of small, independent services that are each responsible for a specific business capability. Each of these services are developed, deployed, and maintained independently and can be scaled up or down
