Info

Microservices foster more rapid development versus SOA. This is because the components that dictate a microservices model are far smaller than SOA. If you need to make a change to a component in microservices, you can develop, update, and deploy rapidly without affecting the operation of the other components. Each component is technically an independent contractor, so each has its own way of doing things and separate way of communicating. Because all of these components share a single communication model, this makes it simpler to improve parts of an application built on microservices. Service Fabric is a distributed systems platform that makes building microservices or translating your application into microservices architecture easy to do, while also giving you the means to manage the full lifecycle of an application. It is available both on-premises and in Azure as Azure Service Fabric. You can write an application once and deploy it on-premises or to Azure with no API change using, all while using common development tools like Microsoft Visual Studio. Service Fabric powers many Microsoft services today, including Azure SQL Database, Azure DocumentDB, Cortana, Power BI, Intune, Azure Event Hubs, Azure IoT, Skype for Business, and many other core Azure services. All the learnings from running these solutions have been incorporated into the Service Fabric product and will ensure that if your applications need a highly reliable and scalable solution, this is your microservices platform of choice.

Azure Hybrid Use Benefit As we previously mentioned, Windows Server 2016 will help you in countless ways when it comes to your journey to the cloud. Microsoft has also built a licensing offer to support this journey so that you can truly maximize the benefit of your on-premises licenses and use them in Azure to help you control costs while running in a public cloud. Azure Hybrid Use Benefit (AHUB) gives customers who are using Windows Server with Software Assurance a mechanism to bring those licenses to Azure. This means a reduced rate can be applied to their Windows Server Virtual Machines running Azure. Essentially, you are paying just for the base compute rate, which can equate up to a 41 percent savings on a D2 VM. More info For more information about AHUB, go to http://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/hybriduse-benefit. Nano Server Nano Server is an exciting new installation option for Windows Server 2016 that has an even smaller footprint than the Server Core installation option. Understanding Nano Server Nano Server is a new, small-footprint, headless installation option for Windows Server 2016. It is a deep refactoring of Windows Server that is optimized for the cloud. As such, Nano Server in Windows Server 2016 is ideal for the following scenarios: Compute Host for Hyper-V or part of a Windows Failover Cluster Container Host Storage Host for a Scale-Out File Server (SOFS) 89 CHAPTER 3 | Application platform
DNS server Web server running IIS Application Platform for apps that are built using cloud development patterns and run in a container and/or VM guest Nano Server is fully headless; thus, it might require some changes to management and operations procedures for organizations that aren’t fully managing their current server deployments remotely. Windows Server customers have provided this feedback: Reboots have a negative impact on my business—why do I need to reboot because of a patch to a feature I never use? When a reboot is required, my servers need to be back in service as soon as possible. Large server images take a long time to deploy and consume a lot of network bandwidth. If the operating system consumes fewer resources, I can increase my virtual machine density. We can no longer afford the security risks of the "install everything everywhere" approach. Nano Server addresses these problems by including just the functionality required for its proposed use cases and nothing more. This minimizes the attack surface area, thus eliminating reboots and minimizing the footprint, which provides faster deployment and reboot time and frees up resources for other uses. Security improvements Eliminating installed-by-default functionality from Nano Server also reduces the number of drivers, services, and ports open, as shown in Figure 3-2. Figure 3-2: Default functionality comparison between Nano Server and Server Core Resource utilization Minimizing the resources utilized by Nano Server frees resources that can be used to increase VM density. It also improves boot performance when reboots are required, as demonstrated by Figure 3-3. 90 CHAPTER 3 | Application platform
