Managing Data in Microservices
This article provides practical examples of how to manage data in microservices, with an emphasis on migrating from a monolithic database. It is recommended to build a monolith first, and only migrate to microservices after you actually require the scaling and other benefits they provide.

Self Contained Systems (SCS): Microservices Done Right
Everybody seems to be building microservices these days. There are many different ways to split a system into microservices, and there appears to be little agreement about what microservices actually are - except for the fact that they can be deployed independently. Self-contained Systems are one approach that has been used by a large number of projects.

Virtual Panel: Microservices in Practice
Microservices have gone from development practices for the select few to something many developers in a range of organisations are embracing. Some believe that technologies that can assist with developing and adopting microservices are ineffective without associated changes within the organisations. We spoke with panelists to get different perspectives on the state of the art with microservices.
