Building simple Node.js microservices using Hapi and Redis

Jeff Barczewski Instead of building monolithic applications, architecting functionality as microservices can give you new flexibility and scalability. Microservices allow you to keep functionality focused and compartmentalized. They can allow architectures with varying technology and languages. In this talk, I’ll showcase a few ways you can create and use microservices with Node.js using Hapi for REST style microservices or Redis for queued microservices. I’ll explain some of the practical advantages this approach provides.
