Thanks for all the nice comments! I'd like to hear your experience learning microservices. How has it been in general? Any topics or concepts that you find challenging? Please comment and let me know!

[@timetoskillup]

Hi Kaushik Sir. Can you please do a hands on tutorials for Microservices? Happy New Year !!!

[@xamael1989]

Can you do a video on how add AI and ML in web site thanks alot

sPRING mvc , SPRING SECURITY AND MICRSERVICES

[@surendarbaby]

I have been working on microservices for last five months. Though we have created n number of microservices applications ,still they are dependent on each other. Whether versioning or modified the contract of the apis. The advantage I could see is independently develop and test. Obviously scalability and zero down time when we go for cloud. Zero down time.

[@deepanshutiwari6658]

Spring security looks complex....

[@iArpanMishra]

In the second technical round, CTO asked "Arpan, what do understand about microservices?". I smiled and I freaking nailed the answer with your awesome explanation. Thanks a ton, my man! Loads of respect! EDIT: Completed one year on the job!

[@asaphakeim3614]

Awesome bro!

[@youmoufas7939]

Very good explanation

[@daayemshehzad]

Yo man I hope you got the job

[@birajg.c645]

Id be disappointed if you did not scream 'Smushed!' infront of the cto lmao

[@iArpanMishra]

@@daayemshehzad I did. Completed a year now.

[@BharCode09]

I'm a S/w engineer with 10 years Industry experience and a senior java developer since 5-7 years. Yet these videos are gem! Just refreshing to watch your videos for brushing up on some classic concepts and to feel connected. Wonderful explanation. I wish I found you 7 years ago, when I all by myself learned java with HeadFirst. Excellent service to mankind interested in java programming!

[@DhrumilShahDOTin]

Your videos helped me 5 yr back when I was in college working on my project ... After 5 yr experience still hellping me ..

[@davidranney8723]

A very concise and clear explanation of what microservices are. Thank you for unpacking the buzzword! Nicely done.

[@manishubana2107]

There are so many videos and tutorials on you tube out there but what makes you stand out are your oratory and language skills. Thank you so much .

[@LucKy-kd7fs]

Before starting the video, I couldn't even imagine that this could be explained in such a simple and *clean* manner. You explained it incredibly well. Thank you!

[@mrmupfukudzwa4374]

By far the best story i have ever been told in my life! Thank you

[@StevenSokulski]

What a great video. This really helped me wrap my head around the core concepts of Microservices, and gave me a good idea of where to go next as I continue to educate myself on the subject. One important detail that helped me to understand Microservices is to start thinking about something like Twilio or Stripe or Mailgun. These services get used to serve one (or a small number) of problems for developers. Individually, none of them makes up an application. But when put together the parts become more than their sum. Microservices is a bit like treating the different responsibilities of your application as if they were, to some degree, a third-party service like Twilio.

[@Anudeepindira]

Whenever I want to learn a new technology, the very first thing I do is to check if it is available on Java brains. Thank you Mr.Koushik for putting great effort and time into making quality videos. You make learning a joy.

[@christophersanders7483]

The best video by far I wish I had known this before. Greatest teacher of all Thank you for this great content

[@bluerose234]

First time here, and loved what I have seen and heard....will be coming back for more!!

[@rorycawley]

By far the best explanation of microservices I've seen, well done and thank you!

[@skullwise]

I just completed your Javascript tutorials...It has definitely made me smarter than when I began the course. Please do react js tutorials Kaushik.

[@rjhrai]

I have watched a lot of your vids, since a few years already. I really appreciate them, especially the way you explain and the (peaceful) way you talk. Please continue posting your vids.

[@SlainR2]

I`m a PHP developer, but I`m watching all your conceptual videos. It sure is the best content I find on youtube.

[@sreedhargourisetty9324]

your teaching is always awesome. To be honest in my Exp Tenure no one has explained in a crystal clear understandable format like you. you made our life easy. Kudos to you once again.

[@franciscocarvalho3676]

Let me tell something - I've already watched tons of videos (not only about this topic, but about software in general), and this was so damn great to see. Thanks for sharing all of that knowledge.

[@preeti957]

Thanks a lot for coming back sir!! Your comeback is the best thing happened to me today! :D Sincere Thanks!!

[@internut33]

Great explanation! I really enjoyed that. I've been promoted recently and am now in the microservice world. This was awesome. I thank you!

[@gauravpandey599]

Koushik, thanks for looking into Microservices. Please , upload a series of videos on Microservices Architecture, 12 Factor App, Naming Server, Cloud Bus, API Gateway, Hystrix , Feign , Ribbon, Config Server , Service to Service Communication, OAuth2 Security etc. We are eagerly waiting for it. Thanks! Again.

[@rajsekharmahapatro]

looks to be like you know more than him :-)

[@adikelkar4]

Beautifully explained! It took just 15 min to differentiate between monolith and microservice architecture. Thank you for this!

[@ahmadmohammed1607]

I honestly think this is the first time of my life I watch a video from the beginning to the end w/o pausing. Amazing Explanation !! Thanks man

[@bradleypring7579]

Ugh where were you when I was in college! You're teaching style, spot on. Nice work and thank you.

[@monsterhuntergo]

Even after 4 years, your way of explanations are really solid gold. I can absorb the concepts well and all of them are important as well regardless of time. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge Koushik! :)

[@itsJamilAhmed]

Great intro video, I like your delivery style. On some of the disadvantages you list, they would stem from a common misconception out there that microservices exclusively communicate via REST. In fact having them also consume/produce asynchronous events, coordinated via an Event Broker can result in a far more scalable and resilient architecture. Would be great to see a future video on that. 🙂

[@Codetutor-DemystifyCoding]

This is the most succinct explanation of microservices that I have come across on KZbin. If any body in future asks for a reference video trying to understand microservices, this is the video I will ask them to watch. Good job.

[@merakhwab]

I have been following your tutorials on Spring, Microservices and each of them are really good! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@tekwewt]

Just mind-blowing how you can simplify a complex concept to the understanding of even a 13 year old child. Just amazing! Thanks a lot

[@amritraj2303]

Koushik, thanks so much...first video in this new year and I saw the one which I requested in my previous comments..😀😀..Expecting more videos in this area in coming months..And a very Happy New year !!

[@leelaprasadjagu3177]

Even though we know the concept there is always something that we get from your videos. Happy New Year Koushik!

[@waqasshah6331]

Finally dream come true. Need complete playlist for it. Till micro-services communication and discovery. Big fan of yours. Love from Pakistan ❤️

[@aniketbharsakale2561]

making complex look simple is the toughest part which you do it so easily. simplicity at its best. keep it up. thanks for all your videos. :) cheers mate.

[@anilmakwana252]

please upload video regularly .... superb video ...

[@sohumsen6371]

Microservices tutorials coming up in the next few days and weeks I hope! Wish you a very happy new year and thanks for all the videos you have put up.

[@CuteyAndy]

Literally the best channel for learning concepts. Absolutely love your content.

[@socialkeviv5444]

That was really a good insight of "about micro services". Kudos to such a great explanation.

[@amitchauhan1505]

this person's voice is so soothing to the ears. And of course, content and explanation are also great.

[@vikas311jain]

Microservice videos series...great

[@SonicAudax]

This is one of the fascinating training videos I've ever seen!

[@sreea1504]

You are awesome , perfect explanation , and your voice is also superb , please do more videos on microservices and keep it up All the best

[@skullwise]

I am Kaushik's No1 fan :-) The Bossssss is back... First comment :-)

[@samashish1650]

Hi

[@AnuD2]

This video is 4 yrs old , but it is Still helping someone like me to understand what a Microservice is and it is so well explained. Thank you .

[@verdaf3435]

One of the best videos I have watched. You make it so easy to understand. The way you have explained it is superb. I hope to continue watching more of your videos.

[@GururajBN]

Whole new topic for someone like me who is not initiated into software. Very lucid and informative.🙏🏽

[@ysrajeshs]

Thank you Koushik for the Microservices Basics. Expecting a full course from you on Microservices soon.

[@benzflynn]

Good video, man. Nothing like a good presentation of the basics of microservice architecture: show the history, show the drawbacks, show the new idea and show the limits of the new idea. Most of the gurus talk as if microservices are always the way to go for web apps. But clearly you need an app of a certain scale and complexity before adopting such an architecture.

[@hemakaranasinghe9332]

Just new to you channel and I am feeling very lucky to be here. Such a great effort you have put to explain these topics. Amazing work! Feels like Im attending a university lecture to complete a master degree. Thank you so much..

[@TrouvatkiDePercusion]

FINALLY!!!! An explanation that makes clear, rational sense. I finally get it. Thank you!!

[@kylediamond8598]

Thanks alot man!!! I didn't skip ur ads😁 This guy is good... Watching this 2 years after.... Ans it's the only video on KZbin that explains it 100%... This was all i needed!!!

[@itsjustanumber954]

Java Brains, thank you!! It's such a relief to hear someone with the ability to make a complex, difficult concept understandable. Such a relief!!... 👍💎

[@honeymotiyani2854]

Loved the way you taught this, will be looking up for some more tutorials.

[@bastiat6865]

Thanks. That was a much simpler and cogent explanation than most of the videos that I have attempted to watch. I made it all the way through this one, and you clarified some abstract notions for me.

[@pravdeepsanghu7545]

I specially stopped this video to comment how beautifully this man is explaining. Each and every word is going into my head. Thank you 😌

[@niladrisadhukhan]

Well crafted easy to grasp video. Thanks for that! Your presentations keep getting better! Hope to see more content from you!

[@RussCrowley]

Great explanation and clearly presented. Thanks.

[@kuseru]

Learned in the first 12 minutes everything about Microservices - thanks to the video and the creator! -, which got me like highspeed thinking, how to realize how I could use them! Thank you!

[@thefullmoonlight]

Excellent video. Well made. I am not just talking about the microservice content, but the overall video. Thank you very much Sir. Please keep this going. I wish you the very best

[@Name260812]

I came here to understand Micro services, but in the process got clarity of web applications which was so cloudy. You are a great communicator. Thanks.

[@shiwanikumari3597]

Had been waiting for ur microservices tutorial. Please upload all soon . I must say u really make it easy to understand things that too point to point. thanks Kaushik. Waiting for next videos

[@Jihed]

this is my first time here, and I really liked the story idea instead of explaining concepts in a boring way. I subscribed and I am waiting for more videos like this!

[@bunnihilator]

finally... top, well explained, contextualized us what the problem was and what it solves. thank you

[@calvadoz]

Hey there, just wanted to say, thanks for the simple, nice and clean explanations, it might be short but yea, the essence is there for me to absorb and move forward from there and I liked how you are projecting it in the end like a neutral person not siding on Microservices fanatics out there. Thumbs up !

[@lepetitebonjour]

FINALLY a video on microservices that really explains the concept in a good and easy to understand fashion. Thanks a lot! I've been looking a video like this one for a long time ..

[@rishabh_gour]

This world needs more people like you

[@as_wani]

Your explanation is always superb!!! I love your tutorials. Anyways, that background music makes this tutorial even better.

[@oweisyahya5485]

Smushed!!! with your tutorials, not only we learn how to code, but also how to explain those concepts to our teammates. Thank you Koushik.

[@HatefYaminiOnline]

Best explanation I’ve heard yet. So glad I found this. Thank you! Subscribed.

[@jwalakumar9434]

This was an awsm video😄😄 Very informative. Love you Mr. Kaushik And Happy New year man

[@dhanushkakumarage1889]

Thanks and happy new year Koushik... and also It would be great if you are planning to release a spring cloud + microservices tutorial series in future..

[@nareshsajnani]

Very well explained. Always love explanations with real-world examples. Thanks a lot.

[@jasons1856]

That was really interesting. I'm a EE and having to learn more about software development as time goes on. This helped.

[@UmerFarooq-fr4yy]

One of the best explanation on microservices I have seen. I also like the way you have explained :)

[@keithmackinen8127]

BEST DESCRIPTION EVER!!! THANK YOU!!! GOT IT FIRST TIME!!

[@rajeshseptember09]

Kaushik, you're so damn good at teaching stuff man. Keep up your good work for the benefit of the community.

[@anandashani9923]

This is by far the best video I have watched on Microservices.

[@kushaltm6325]

Thank you. Thanks again for teaching us how these ideas blossomed over time.

[@timothyn4699]

Great video presentation! Having it told in a clear story form with illustrations and reasonings helps cement the progress and the 'why' behind it all. Thanks for the share

[@vishalnanda8892]

Excellent Explanation ! clarified my microservices concepts in less than 15 minutes. Cheers!

[@PravatKTimsina]

No other Tutorial can be better than this to understand the fundamental of microservices. Thank you Brother. Subscribed From NEPAL.

[@andrewshrosbree7450]

Kaushik, although this video is informative I was hoping it would address the issue of whether a microservice is (1) a deployable code module or (2) a deployable code module including its database or (3) a logical construct relating to the deployment of auto-scaling code modules that are all served by a single underlying database. In practice I have found that deploying microservices in AWS involves the modularisation of only the code, with a monolithic database (usually in a separate subnet); the auto-scaling of both software and data appears to be an impractical pattern. I'd appreciate feedback from other architects about this. BTW, your REST tutorials are the best I have ever seen. Many thanks.

[@AbhishekKumar-ub8co]

Very apt question........... looking for an answer to similar question.

[@szeredaiakos]

I love how in one sentence you point out that they are independent applications and the very next sentence you point out that they talk to each other using a request-response pattern and "work together". The "work together" part does not compute in the context of the initial "independent" promise.

[@rohit-gupta]

This is damn well explained. Thank you so much!

[@homeworks5060]

Awesome explanation. I was working with microservice testing but till now I never understood the exact definition of microservice as I am from non technical background (BA). But after watching this video, microservice picture is clear. Thanks a lot!

[@douniaelm1453]

Amazing work! I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this for weeks now! Thank you for this

[@SukhjinderKahlon]

It is so helpful to understand all about micro services. You have done great job. I really want to thank you for this great content in just 15 min video. Lots of lessen learned. I have shared this video with my friends. Once again Thanks a lot.

[@jagan1957]

This guy knows how to teach!! All these videos are gems!

[@aselmkn7764]

Thank you very much for this simple and clear explanation! You’ve saved me so much time!

[@aiprompt]

This is such an amazing overview of microservices! Thank you!

[@ashishgupta-mn5mv]

Now finally i understood what is microservices and why we used it and it advantages. Very well explained from past to present , i love the way you have explained it :)

[@sachinshrivastav491]

Great video to watch for people just starting into Microservice world. Very well explained Kaushik and your videos are always very helpful. Kudos!!!

[@prithvirajghoshdastidar3394]

You are doing an awesome job of teaching. Real high quality.

[@saritamisra5883]

Very good explanation to get the base of microservices. Seeing it evolve is the best way to understand the need for it and how it came about.

[@victorychang1294]

Thanks for breaking down the topic clearly. Great tutorial.

[@MrManjax]

Fantastic video! Really loved the way you articulated the whole concept. Thanks for all your efforts in creating such great content. Keep up the good work!

[@himanshitaneja1254]

Loved it !! You explained it like a pro !! Thank you so much Sir !! May God bless you :)

[@Zohdiak]

Thank you so much, you are the only one that actually made great analogies and broke it down barney style for me to understand. I did wish you explained REST API's a little more. However, this was the best explanation of microservices I could find.

[@mastermatt963]

I have been learning about microservices at the university back in the day, but didnt get it. Until I watched this video. Thanks

[@vigneshejil6831]

Best video ever! You are really up to the point and content. Thanks for the awesome explanation.

[@suryatn]

Great explanation of the concept. Content is very well organized and presented. It really sticks and gives a clear bigger picture along with its pros and cons. Thank you and well done !
