qcon-microservices

Example online orders app composed of event-driven microservices. Built for QCon workshop.

Slides:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vq1tcLk4FWK7BKRG5cEhOzbeXoy65hUK/view

This workshop will include:

  • Create a Kafka cluster on Confluent Cloud
  • Create topics, produce and consume events from commandline
  • Using Kafka consumer and producer in a microservice to perform simple order validation.
  • Implement a webservice that submits orders and uses "read-own-writes" pattern to show order status.
  • Use Streams-to-Table join to send status updates by email.

Preparation!

Make sure you have the following:

  • OSX or Linux
  • Java 8
  • Java development environment (Intellij recommended)
  • Maven

Please create cloud clusters for the workshop!

  1. Login to https://confluent.cloud with username and password you received by email from QCon.
  2. Create a new cluster! call it “lastname-firstname”, make sure you use the smallest options, create it on Google Cloud Platform and use us-centeral1 region. You'll be shown the cost for the cluster. Don't worry about it - Confluent has been kind enough to sponsor the clusters and you will not be charged.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions closely to install Confluent Cloud CLI and initialize the CLI.
  4. If you ran into issues, try to refer to the documentation here: https://docs.confluent.io/current/quickstart/cloud-quickstart.html.
  5. If you managed to create a cluster, follow Step 3 of the Quickstart (https://docs.confluent.io/current/quickstart/cloud-quickstart.html) to create a topic and produce/consume some events.

In addition:

  1. Please clone this repository
  2. Run mvn dependency:resolve to get dependencies in advance. This will help with the network in the class.

Outline

  1. Lesson 0: Introduction to Kafka, topics and events:
    • What are event-driven microservices and why do we need them?
    • Overview of our Architecture
    • Key concepts of Apache Kafka
  2. Lab 0:
    • Create a cluster in Confluent Cloud
    • Install the Confluent Cloud CLI
    • Create topic, produce and consume events from Cloud CLI
  3. Lesson 1: Simple event validation:
    • "Hipster Stream Processing"
    • Producer and Consumer APIs
  4. Lab 1:
    • git checkout lab1
    • Create topic ORDERS with 3 partitions
    • Validate events and produce results to Kafka: Implement the TODO part of the OrderValidationService. Note that validate() method implements the specific validation rules.
    • Build the service :) using mvn clean install
    • Test the simple validation service: Either using scripts/run_lab1.sh, writing a unit test, or a different method.
    • Extra credit: Use a produce method with error handling.
    • Extra credit: How would you use a rules engine?
    • Extra credit: How would you add multiple validators?
  5. Lesson 2: CQRS-based web-service with Kafka Streams
    • Introduction to Kafka Streams
    • Introducing local materialized views
    • Stream-table duality
    • Code review of web-service
  6. Lab 2:
    • git checkout lab2
    • Run and experiment with web service:
      • Build the service :) using mvn clean install
      • Use scripts/run_lab2.sh to experiment with the service. Running the script will start the Order service and validation service. Pressing any key will run few pre-canned curl commands that use the service. Another click will cause the services to exit.
    • Add "check for validation" endpoint: Implement the TODO part of the OrderService. Note that we already have a simple GET endpoint that gets any order, we need a new endpoint that only returns validated orders.
    • Use the same script from earlier to experiment with the new endpoint.
    • Extra Credit: Implement blocking-POST that only returns after order was validated.
    • Extra Credit: How would you scale to multiple instances? (Hint: Look up interactive queries APIs for Kafka Streams)
  7. Lesson 3 (if there is time): Simple email service
    • Stream-table join enrichment pattern
    • Global KTables
  8. Lab 3 (if there is time):
    • git checkout lab3
    • Implement Stream-table join: Implement the two functions required for the join (marked as TODO)
    • Test email service using the CustomerProducer and OrderProducer clases:
      • Build the service :) using mvn clean install
      • Create a new topic CUSTOMERS for customer data
      • scripts/run_lab3.sh will run the data generators, validator and email service
      • You can write additional tests
