Service Fabric
Service Fabric: Distributed Microservices Platform
Develop and manage scalable microservices and container-based applications with Service Fabric by Microsoft, handling lifecycle management, scaling, failover policies and more across clusters of machines.
What is Service Fabric?
Service Fabric is an open-source distributed systems platform developed by Microsoft for building and managing scalable containerized and microservices applications across clusters of machines. Some key aspects of Service Fabric include:
- Handling stateful and stateless microservices for building distributed, scalable cloud applications
- Automated deployment, scaling, load balancing, failover and cluster management
- Support for containers like Docker as well as guest executables
- A messaging infrastructure for secure and reliable communication between services
- Health monitoring and self-healing capabilities for services
- Developer SDKs for building .NET and Java applications on the platform
Service Fabric runs on Windows or Linux machines, either on-premises or in public clouds like Azure. It abstracts away low-level infrastructure details, making it simpler to build, deploy and manage scalable containerized workloads and distributed applications spanning multiple machines.
