Architecture
Our sample microservices-based system consists of the following modules:
- gateway-service - a module that Spring Cloud Netflix Zuul for running Spring Boot application that acts as a proxy/gateway in our architecture.
- config-service - a module that uses Spring Cloud Config Server for running configuration server in the
native mode. The configuration files are placed on the classpath.
- discovery-service - a module that depending on the example it uses Spring Cloud Netflix Eureka or Spring Cloud Netlix Alibaba Nacos as an embedded discovery server.
- employee-service - a module containing the first of our sample microservices that allows to perform CRUD operation on in-memory repository of employees
- department-service - a module containing the second of our sample microservices that allows to perform CRUD operation on in-memory repository of departments. It communicates with employee-service.
- organization-service - a module containing the third of our sample microservices that allows to perform CRUD operation on in-memory repository of organizations. It communicates with both employee-service and organization-service.
The following picture illustrates the architecture described above.
