Design Microservices Architecture with Patterns and Principles - Problem: Inter-Service Communication Makes Heavy Load o

The video tutorial addresses issues with the current architecture and explores designing synchronous APIs for microservices, focusing on public and backend APIs. It highlights the importance of network performance in backend APIs and discusses inter-service communication challenges. A use case involving shopping cart microservices is presented to illustrate these concepts. Best practices, such as using REST APIs for public communication and GRPC for inter-service communication, are recommended. The tutorial concludes with a discussion on GRPC's scalability and technology-agnostic nature.

What are the two types of APIs mentioned when designing synchronous communication in microservice architecture?

Explain the importance of using Restful APIs for public APIs in microservices.

What are the performance considerations for back end APIs compared to public APIs?

Describe the best practice for communication between client and server as well as inter-service communication.

What is the role of GRPC in microservices communication?
