Primož Hrovat (2018) Microservices in decentralized environment. EngD thesis.
Abstract
Today microservices are one of the leading design principles, when it comes to building modern applications. Monoliths are being replaced with this modern architecural style and multiple tools and techniques are being develop to support it. Applications are deployed to a computing center, often called simply as cloud. Elasticity and effective scaling of such applications in contrast to monoliths are needed for good performance and high response rates. We have analized the subjet of a decentralized execution and implemented a prototype platform based on Ethereum blockchain. We have proposed a conceptual solution to service discovery in a decentralized environment and presented a process, that enables decentralized execution of applications. We are standing on the edge of what we know is currently possible and are ready to push the boundaries even further. This can be the next big step in computer science.
