Security Considerations and the State of Microservices with Sam Newman

Wesley Reisz talks with Sam Newman about microservices. They explore the current state of the art with regards to the architectural style and corresponding tooling and deployment platforms. They then discuss how microservices increase the surface area of where sensitive information can be read or manipulated, but also have the potential to create systems that are more secure.
