Moving to a distributed architecture is challenging, with many difficult decisions and trade-offs to consider. In this session you will learn about the many challenges of distributed architectures. Then, we’ll take a dive into some of those challenges, including understanding the trade-offs between synchronous vs. asynchronous communication, learning how to determine the right size for a service, and determining which approach you should use for migrating a monolithic application to a distributed architecture.
