Register for Next Week's Webinar - Aspects of Microservices: Rolling Upgrades and Feedback using PaaS

Aspects of Microservices:
Rolling Upgrades and Feedback using PaaS
Presenters

Sign up for this Stackato webinar

Wednesday, December 3 at 10:00am PST 
John Wetherill, Technology Evangelist 
Phil Whelan, Technology Evangelist

The arrival of microservices architecture heralds a new era in application development. Instead of the traditional monolithic processes, applications are comprised of a number of small, independent composable services. It is a scalable, flexible, and complex approach. 

In this new series, John Wetherill and Phil Whelan dig deep into various aspects of microservices, explaining how they work, connect, and how you can get the most out of them. During this webinar, they discuss rolling upgrades and fallback, and how they are simplified and facilitated by PaaS. Some of the topics they will cover are: 

  • Immutable code service patterns 
  • Versioning 
  • Managing orchestration between deploying two different microservices 
  • Failure handling 
  • Polyglot capabilities 

Microservices are the future and PaaS helps you get there faster. Join us and learn more about how you can accelerate application development, streamline software delivery, and eliminate friction!

Seating is limited, so save your spot!

Best regards,
Navrup Johal
Product Marketing Manager 

PS. Stackato makes it easy set up your own PaaS and start deploying applications to the cloud. Sign up for your free 20GB cluster and explore how simple it can be!
