Implementing API-led Cloud-native apps on OCI by Sven Bemhardt

Cloud-native is the way new applications should be built today. It doesn't matter here, if the application is going to be deployed in the Cloud or On-prem. The most important thing is that an application is applicable for getting the most out of the Cloud with respect to efficiency. APIs and Containers are essential building blocks of Cloud-native applications. As Cloud-native apps are driven by APIs, the development of such an app should start with defining the API in an API design-first approach.

Within this session I'll give further insights into what makes Cloud-native development different from classical app development. Furthermore, we'll go through the respective development steps (API design, Service development, Deployment to OCI, API exposure) to make the session more practical. For exposing the app to the outside world OCI API Gateway will be used. The development of the Cloud-native app is done using Oracle's Microservice framework Helidon.
