Blog microservices
Project for a microservices course handling all services manually with docker and kubernetes.
Description
As part of the course program, I developed a small blog-like app to practice the concepts around microservices and its architechture.
Services
The following services were created for this project:
- A service to store all the posts
- A service to store all the comments
- A query service where the front gets the data of the posts with embeded comments
- A moderation service that validates every comment automatically
- An event bus to receive and redirect events from all other services
Docker
For every service a docker image whas created and pushed to dockerhub in order to be able to pull them with kubernetes.
FROM node:alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY ./ ./
RUN npm install
CMD [ "npm", "run", "dev" ]
Kubernetes
For each microservice a deployment setup was created with a ClusterIP that enables interconection between each other. Finally, the application is orchestrated within a cluster receiving requests into an nginx ingress controller redirecting the traffic into the correspondant microservice.
