Graph at the Core of a Microservices Architecture
Managing data in a microservices architecture has never been a straightforward task. Splitting the monolith is already a complex process, let alone planning a product’s infrastructure from scratch with microservices in mind. A lot of effort has been put into finding solutions for data integration in a microservices architecture — all of which are successful when you put graphs at the heart of it.
This talk will shed the light on our journey, covering how to set up Neo4j in a microservices architecture using AWS, how to consolidate data in the graph as the source of truth, and how to use graphs as a tool to model and describe the architecture, the fleet of services, their states (metadata), and their relationships as dependencies.
