ai.bythebay.io Nov 2025, Oakland, full-stack AI conference Scale By the Bay 2019 is held on November 13-15 in sunny Oakland, California, on the shores of Lake Merritt: https://scale.bythebay.io. Join us! ----- Migrating Monolith to Microservices Anand Patel, Runnable While there are many who claim adopting a microservices architecture will yield several benefits, it usually takes more work for those benefits to be fully experienced. This is especially true with monolith-to-microservices migrations, where developers still think in an synchronous REST mindset. In this talk, we'll discuss what is required to move to async services and how adopting an event-driven architecture can promote self-healing, rapid prototyping, and graceful degradation. We will also go over some guidelines on how to implement this kind of architecture with examples using RabbitMQ. https://www.meetup.com/Reactive-Systems/events/237248749/
