Microservice pattern: Microservice chassis #2677

Description

Description

The Microservice Chassis design pattern is a foundational framework for developing microservices that encapsulate common concerns, such as logging, configuration, and security. By creating a chassis, developers can focus on business logic without reinventing the wheel for these standard features. This pattern promotes consistency, reduces boilerplate code, and simplifies maintenance.

Main Elements of the Pattern

  • Service Configuration: Centralized management of configurations for each microservice.
  • Service Discovery: Mechanisms for services to discover each other, typically using a registry.
  • Logging: Standardized logging format across services to simplify debugging and monitoring.
  • Security: Common security practices, such as authentication and authorization, implemented uniformly.
  • Monitoring and Metrics: Integrated tools for monitoring service health and performance metrics.

Acceptance Criteria

  1. A new module named microservices-chassis is created under the project structure.
  2. Implement basic configurations, service discovery, logging, security, and monitoring features within the module.
  3. Provide comprehensive documentation and examples demonstrating how to use the microservice chassis in a sample microservice.
