Ask IH: Does my home page convey right message? (micro-services, resiliency)

Plummb - Java/Microservices Resilience Made Easy

Various aspects of resilience, security, exception, and logging get enabled for the application automatically and managed via a Dashboard.

    Well almost. But seeing as I don't see any code samples on how to integrate it with my existing application and/or how to configure it I kind of have no idea what to expect in terms of will it clash with my Spring stuff that I already have. This can all be implemented with the Spring Cloud Netflix stack and I get how that works because I've done it before but how does it work when I'm just including a dependacy in my pom file? And then given the code is calling to a 3sd party server how does that tie in with when you are running testing scenarios and don't necessarily want it to phone home?

    Also these kind of libraries are paid for in the C# ecosystem but not really in the Java ecosystem. Well... at least it's a lot more rare.

    But what about the benefits though? Is this significantly faster than just doing it with Spring Cloud Netflix stack?

      Thanks, James. We have updated the site.
      Does it make sense to add FAQs to answer queries you mentioned?

      Thank you for feedback in this details. I'll try myself, add more sections how it compares to Netflix's stack.

    It didn't until I clicked on the let's explore button..

    My thoughts going through your site

    1. I'll skip the "what makes an application resilient" section, don't care. Only want to know what this is
    2. Resilience as a service (great, makes sense..) but what the hell does that include?
    3. Scroll rest of page trying to understand what it is your app does
    4. Click in let's explore button to see exactly what it is

    Can I suggest you reorganise the page so that you at he least list of the things your app protects against

      Thanks, Chris. We have updated the site.
      Does it make sense to add a Flow Diagram depicting how this is achieved without any code change?

      Thank you for this genuine feedback.
