Beyond Microservices: Streams, State & Scalability
summary
Argues that replacing synchronous REST calls with a shared event log using Apache Kafka and Confluent tooling reduces coupling, lets services own local state, and makes failures graceful; shows sidecar proxies and service mesh for distributed routing, rate‑limiting and discovery; demonstrates schema validation via schema registry and Protobuf to prevent silent breakage; compares serverless functions (with external DBs) to stateful microservices and recommends durable stateful functions or local state stores for true scalability and independent deployability.
