Microservices - the lean way (NodeJS)
summary
Company runs about 50 microservices and claims moving from a monolithic Rails app cut test times from hours to minutes and DB migrations to small, safe changes. Live demos build three NodeJS services — hello, time, random — plus a simple registry with health checks that registers instances, pings them, and removes dead nodes. Code uses the async package for parallel calls, exposes /health and version endpoints, and supports independent deploys with a reported zero‑disruption deployment. NodeJS is shown as fast and easy to iterate.
