Enabling Microservices at Orbitz
summary
Breaks one component out of a 500+ application estate into independently deployable services, rewrites the editorial module as a microservice and proves the pipeline works end-to-end. Uses Docker images pushed to Artifactory, Consul for service discovery, ELK for logs and a custom Graphite relay, and switches orchestration to Mesos + Marathon so health checks and graceful shutdowns survive node failures. Builds a repeatable CI/CD flow with Jenkins + Ansible pipeline, Stash hooks, ServiceNow change tickets and canary/acceptance stages, delivering production changes in 10 minutes to production.
