In order to operate 24/7 an application must embrace constant change and failure. This kind of resiliency is achievable through the application of reactive design principles. Learn the theory via real-world examples at Netflix along with some lessons learned the hard way in production. Topics of interest will include service-oriented architectures (microservices), cloud computing, where to put application state, hot deployments, bulk heading, circuit breakers, degrading gracefully, operational tooling and how application architecture affects resilience.
