Why CoreOS?
● Built with application containers in mind
● Built for scale
● Fleet - manages nodes and services in a cluster
● Etcd - distributed key-value store
● [Unit] - [Service] - [Timer]
● fleetctl - the cli tool to manage Fleet
● etcdctl - the cli tool to manage Etcd](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/microservicespresentationdockerathens-150310074553-conversion-gate01/85/introduction-to-micro-services-25-320.jpg)

introduction to micro services
The document discusses the principles and implementation of microservices architecture, emphasizing the benefits of loosely coupled services, scalability, and agility in development practices. It describes the use of container technologies like Docker for managing and deploying these microservices, along with specific examples and challenges faced by one company in transitioning to this architectural style. Additionally, it outlines metrics for planning and managing the infrastructure, highlighting tools like Terraform and CoreOS for operational efficiency.

- 2. What is aMicroService “approach to developing a single application as a suite of small services” “designing software applications as suites of independently deployable services”
- 3. What is aMicroService
- 4. What is aMicroService ● Each service is loosely coupled / independently deployable ○ Changes made only to this service ● Each service has a bounded context ○ Service should not know about surrounding service (domain driven design)
- 5. Characteristics ● Services ● Productsvs Projects ● Smart endpoints / dumb pipes ● Decentralized governance ● Decentralised data management ● Automation ● Design for failure ● Evolutionary design
- 6. Simple Blog Example ELB WebServer/ FE WebServer / FE Comments Service Pages Service Posts Service Redis MySql MySql Mongo Redis SOLR
- 7. Advantages ● Small codebase / easier to test / maintain ● Easy to scale - clone ● Easy to throw away ● Easy to deploy and track errors ● Freedom to switch tech stack ● Maximise team agility ● Maximise resource utilisation
- 8. Disadvantages ● Devops challengeon multiple fronts ● Complexity in messaging and front end ● Most container technologies still new ● Freedom of tech stack not always good news (for the future and for the CTO)
- 9. Micro Service andagility ● Modern agile practice can not ignore tech ● No modern tech = no absolute agility ● Micro services enable agility in a special way ○ Enforce team creation ○ Enforce faster deployments / better & easier tests ○ CI / CD ○ Easier communication flow methods (APIs) ○ Each service = small scale product
- 10. Container Technology inmicros ● Containers assist micro architecture in ○ Visualising services ○ Building / sharing services between coders ○ Deploying services ○ Utilising server resources to run containers irrespective of underlying tech ● Popular container technologies ○ Docker ○ Rocket
- 11. Container Management ● Usedto maintain and utilize containers / services ○ Make sure all services up and running ○ Make sure server utilisation is maxed out ● Popular container management technologies ○ CoreOS fleet ○ Docker-machine ○ Mesos ○ Kubernetes ○ AWS ECS / Google Container Engine
- 12. PPH Specifics ● Architecturehistory ○ 2008 shared server – outsourced code – raw php ○ 2010 more servers on peer1 and standalone mysql ○ 2010 move to aws ○ 2011 move to yii framework (not 100% complete) ○ Multiple features and optimisation since then ○ 2014 – supertasker.com launch ● Present ○ Monolithic app ○ Multiple db tech (sql, dynamo, mongo, memcache) ○ Search through SOLR ○ Traffic on supertasker.com
- 13. PPH Challenges ● ConstantlyGrowing load (data + traffic) ○ 160GB db ○ 1300 rpm avg ○ 35k uniques / day (55k sessions) ● Code complexity from multiple features ● Usage of yii v1.6 – difficult to change. Not exciting for devs to work on it ● Code tightly coupled in many ways ● More products evolving and needing similar features – supertasker.com
- 14. PPH Future ● Minimisecore db - micros use their own ● Ability to scale to amazing level - scale out ○ design to clone things (clone dbs / web servers) ○ design to split things (one core vs many small ones) ○ design to split similar things (shard / partition) ● Absolute resource utilisation ● Devs playground (use desired tech – within limits)
- 15. PPH Future ● Utilisationof communities through container sharing – no need to share apps ● Service sharing between products ● Fully tested / API enabled services ● Gradually decrease power or core db and machines ○ never reach maximum of scaliong up ability
- 16. PPH Micro Internals ●Container technology ○ Docker ○ Docker-compose ● Preferred micro language ○ Php using yii v2 which is REST API enabled ● REST API ○ Communication only through well defined APIs ● Full tested Services ○ Each service to have full test coverage (unit & integration & contract)
- 17. PPH Micro Internals ●Data ○ Each service to be tied to its own data ● Container Management ○ CoreOS fleet ● Deployment ● CI tool ○ shippable
- 18. Workflow: PPH Metrics ●planning the ecosystem ● keeping it simple ● describing the infrastructure plan under version control ● describing the API ● opting for identical D-S-P environments ● enforcing testing (make everything fail) ● deploying seamlessly (as possible) ● applying Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery
- 19. PPH Metrics: Planning Goals: ●Scalable ● Self-contained ● Interoperable ● Proven in production ● Cost effective PPH preference: AWS EC2 AutoScaling + CoreOS (stable channel)
- 20. PPH Metrics: definingan API ● Lots of tools (Swagger, RAML, etc) ● Well defined entities - check out schema.org ● Discussion amongst dev team for internal API usage ● Join Athens API Meetup :) We were lazy - no excuses - moving on
- 21. PPH Metrics: KISS ●Single node definition ● Single scaling up/down strategy ● Platform agnostic (if possible) ● Human readable Configuration Management and IaC ● DevOps friendly (bridge the gap between Dev & Ops) ● API matters - Preferred Stack does not (or does it?) ● Bring up dev environment in seconds
- 22. PPH Metrics: Describingit whole ● Infrastructure as Code Terraform ● Configuration Management CoreOS Cloud-config + Fleet Services ● Linking Containers docker-compose / swarm
- 23. PPH Metrics: Terraform WhyTerraform? ● Ops make mistakes ● Many environments, many resources, too much room for error, too little time for documenting changes and current state ● Awesome human readable DSL ● Easy to maintain infrastructure state ● Multiple providers (we just needed AWS) ● Developers understand it ● Still very fresh, but well tested ● Created by Hashicorp Version 0.3.7 meets our needs We made small contributions that we needed to have upstream
- 24. Terraform DSL -defining an AWS autoscaling group behind a Load Balancer
- 25. PPH Metrics: CoreOS WhyCoreOS? ● Built with application containers in mind ● Built for scale ● Fleet - manages nodes and services in a cluster ● Etcd - distributed key-value store ● [Unit] - [Service] - [Timer] ● fleetctl - the cli tool to manage Fleet ● etcdctl - the cli tool to manage Etcd

- 29. PPH Metrics: Keepingenvs identical The Stack ● MySQL ● Nginx ● PHP (in FastCGI) ● Memcached ● Metrics (our Yii2 framework app (with its dependencies)) In Staging and Production environments most of the stack is out of container scope MySQL -> AWS RDS HTTP LoadBalancing -> AWS ELB Memcached - AWS ElasticCache Etcd holds their endpoints and connection credentials How do we link all these in a Development environment (and remain sane)?
- 30. PPH Metrics: docker-compose Fast,isolated development environments using Docker. Simple YAML syntax to link containers, container volumes, expose ports & link hosts.
