PROJECT
Unleashing Django’s Power: Building Agile Microservices
In this project, we will learn to develop a platform and create RESTful APIs with Django to enable seamless communication between microservices. Additionally, we will gain expertise in testing and validating the microservice APIs and implementing robust security measures.
You will learn to:
Build agile microservices with Django’s power.
Design scalable architectures for distributed systems.
Master communication between microservices.
Deploy and orchestrate microservices with ease.
Ensure resilience and fault tolerance in microservices.
Optimize performance and scalability of microservices.

Project Description
In this project, we’ll develop a microservices architecture using the Django web framework. Microservices are a modern architectural approach that enables the development of modular, scalable, and maintainable software systems. We’ll leverage Django, a robust and versatile framework, to build microservices that can perform specific tasks or functions within a larger system. The project provides an excellent opportunity to explore microservices architectures and gain hands-on experience.
In this project, we’ll create and integrate the following four microservices:
User: Handles user authentication and management
Product: Manages product information, including CRUD operations
Order: Deals with creating, updating, and managing orders
Payment: Handles payment processing and integration with payment gateways
We’ll also perform API testing using the terminal and then write extensive test cases for each microservice. By the end of this project, we’ll have a fully functional microservice developed with Django’s REST framework that will be ready for integration into larger systems.
