A practitioner’s guide to building sagas for distributed commerce transactions, comparing orchestration and choreography, and showing how compensation, idempotency, and observability keep orders resilient when individual services fail.
A practitioner’s guide to designing circuit breakers in service meshes, with concrete patterns for failure detection, isolation, and recovery in production microservices.
Distributed transactions in commerce platforms can’t rely on two-phase commit. This post walks through the Saga pattern, compares choreography and orchestration, and shows how to handle compensation, idempotency, and observability in production.
Build a production-shaped distributed rate limiter in Go and Redis using a token bucket algorithm. Includes runnable code, atomic Lua scripts, integration tests, and a roadmap to extend it for your CV.
A step‑by‑step guide to building a resilient commerce saga, from service layout to compensating actions and observability.
