Node.js Microservices Resilience and Fault Tolerance

"The best way to avoid system failures is not to build software.".

In a hyper-connected digital world where services exist in healthcare, finance and other industries, failures are inevitable. Outages not handled properly can cripple an entire service — like the recent outage that left several African countries without internet connectivity for a week.

If you are new to any of these tools, it is recommended that you first complete the introductory courses available on Pluralsight.

This module explores the importance of resilience and fault tolerance in microservices. It presents why these concepts are essential to maintaining the stability and reliability of a system, especially in a distributed environment like that of microservices.
