Application Modernization Using Cloud Strangler Pattern and DevOps Best Practices

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

Shows a concrete migration: a Node.js monolith is refactored into four microservices (customers, content, vendors, employees), each containerized with a Dockerfile (Alpine Node 7.10, port 3000), image built, tagged and pushed to ECR, deployed to an ECS cluster, and routed by an ALB path rule (/service/employees). Demo flips a load‑balancer rule into a dead target group to retire the legacy endpoint and the refactored UI loads successfully. Recommends CI/CD via CodeCommit/CodeBuild/CodeDeploy for blue‑green or canary and monitoring with CloudWatch X‑Ray Prometheus Grafana.
