I think they were SQL, NoSQL, data warehousing, and something else. All you have to worry about it is the application that runs on the database. You can use ElastiCache as a primary data store, but it is more commonly used as a cache in front of other database offerings (managed or unmanaged). Where is FanDuel’s application now?

A big reason is the proliferation of micro-services based applications in highly redundant and highly available cloud infrastructures. Add to that a desire for most enterprises to integrate cloud based workloads with legacy on-premises applications, and we have complex hybrid cloud deployments to deal with as the result.

But when it comes to migrating to the cloud, many software vendors and CSPs in the past decade have taken a 'lift-and-shift' approach, which involves taking modular applications and containerizing them in the belief that they are cloud-ready. It is therefore vital to assess application performance before taking the plunge.

Recep talks about how the predominant architecture for network virtualization involves the use of overlay networks created and managed at the edge by virtual switches in the hypervisors. Some of these services naturally should run on the top-of-rack (ToR) switch, like load balancing or security services. So how does this work?

Eskilden freely acknowledges that moving to a microservices-based architecture increases complexity and is not “free”. In order to help address the complexity brought on by microservices-based architectures, Eskilden wants to talk about resiliency, service discovery, and routing. This leads into a discussion of discovery.
