S3E21 - Fault Tolerance in Microservices: Hystrix Features, Role & Alternatives


Listen Later

How do microservices stay resilient when one part of the system fails? In this episode of PithorAcademy, we explore Hystrix, a powerful fault-tolerance library used in microservices architecture. Understand why Hystrix became popular, how it provides circuit breaking, fallback mechanisms, and latency tolerance, and where it fits in the service call lifecycle. We also cover its limitations, current relevance, and compare it with other modern tools like Resilience4j. If you're building robust distributed systems, this episode is a must-listen.
