10 Design Tips for Java MicroServices Developers

on YouTube ↗45m

" summary

Ten concrete rules: prioritize runnable quickstarts, avoid the “wall of intertwined text,” and document token/key expiry behavior; organize code by package-per-domain (api/model/service/persistence) and prefer package-private modifiers for encapsulation to enable microservice extraction. Use Quarkus examples, emit Micrometer metrics and telemetry, return the received model object for easy debugging, implement toString and non-null checks, and follow saga/idempotency patterns for availability and safe retries.
