Full Lifecycle Service Management: Embracing Agnostic Strategies for Microservices

In a world with multiple, emerging options for interfacing between microservices, a fixed, myopic viewpoint will fail a growing business.
Modern teams succeed through the diversity of the tools at their disposal for service management. Moving beyond traditional API management requires cultivating a vision that prepares you for the future with flexible, agnostic and adaptive strategies.

Beyond REST: Adapting to the Evolving Landscape of Service Communication

A Microservices-First World

We live in an exciting time for software; we are witnessing a monumental shift in how applications are built. We have the opportunity to participate in the large-scale movement from centralized applications to decentralized, highly performant software architectures.

API and REST standards revolutionized the exchange of data and connection between systems and applications across the internet. The advent of containers led to widespread adoption of microservices on an unprecedented scale. Now as we move into a cloud native, microservices-first world, we can no longer rely on RESTful APIs alone to meet the needs of the modern organization.

In this eBook, you’ll learn:

  • The framework for Full Lifecycle Service Management and how this approach will address the challenges of modern service environments.
  • Why the way toward delivering speed is through agnosticism - designing services that work across any language and set of protocols.
