Using NodeJS to Build Micro Services Architecture
summary
AOL builds mobile inline playback by converting video URLs into image sequences and MP3 via a Node.js microservice chain. Architecture uses a sliced video provider, a background video slicer that produces images offline, a storage access layer backed by MongoDB, and Redis pub/sub to invalidate local cache. Uses pm2 and Datadog for monitoring and autoscaling, runs in production with a few services yet handles spikes up to ~40k hits with low error rates.
