Wesley Reisz talks to Daniel Bryant on moving from monoliths to micro-services, covering bounded contexts, when to break up micro-services, event storming, practices like observability and tracing, and more.

Why listen to this podcast:

- Migrating a monolith to micro-services is best done by breaking off a valuable but not critical part first.

- Designing a greenfield application as micro-services requires a strong understanding of the domain.

- When a request enters the system, it needs to be tagged with a correlation id that flows down to all fan-out service requests.

- Observability and metrics are essential parts to include when moving micro-services to production.

- A service mesh allows you to scale services and permit binary transports without losing observability.
