This technical presentation shares challenges for large system transformations to a (micro)services oriented architecture. Monolithic codebase and direct database level integration can still be appealing when a project faces timeline pressures, thus presenting setbacks for the transition. I will explain eBay’s approach to overcoming these obstacles, the services decomposition and layering as well as integration and communication patterns that the architecture and development teams have designed as solutions for a successful microservices architecture.
