The project demonstrates how to build a Resilient Distributed System which contains a set of microservices.

In order to demonstrate how to:

1. Implement microservices which communicate using HTTP/REST protocol
2. Implement patterns for resilient distributed systems such as: API Gateway, Service Discovery, Circuit Breaker etc

The following technologies are used:

1. Spring Boot is used for implementing microservices
2. Netflix Zuul is used for implementing Api Gateway
3. Netflix Eureka is used for implementing Service Discovery
4. Netflix Hystrix is used for implementing Circuit Breaker

In order to startup the whole system, you need to execute the following commands for each microservice:

• maven clean package creates an executable jar using spring-boot-maven-plugin
• java -jar target/*.jar runs an application

All registered microservices are available in Eureka's admin area http://localhost:8761/

All mapped routes are available via specific Zuul end-point http://localhost:8080/routes
