In the latest Tech Forward episode, we hosted two of our fantastic colleagues, Milos Bozic, senior engineering and delivery lead, and Jozsef Kovacs, technical team lead. They were happy to share their experiences, tips, and tricks on using a microservice architecture at an enterprise company on a large scale.
During this session, Milos and Jozsef showed the complexity of one satellite service provider ecosystem and its integrations via customer onboarding, technical SatCom installation configuration, and billing and invoicing.
You will be able to see an example of the technical solution implementation and its tech stack.

We asked Milos and Jozsef to share their impressions.
“Dealing with integrations and business processes implementation on a larger scale can be challenging. When you need to connect many different APIs and systems, both internal and external, make sure to have a consistent data flow and all systems in sync, serve your customers with their data, and enable them to do their daily work on time.”
“You need to stop, step back, and think about designing a robust system that can properly scale with the growing environment. In this presentation, we discuss how we deal with these challenges through an example of one of the most important business processes.”
-Milos Bozic, Senior Engineering and Delivery Lead
“The presentation aims to showcase some challenges we faced while working with an enterprise SatCom company. We presented a high-level overview of the ordering process and mentioned the external systems this ordering flow touches. This gives an idea to the viewer about the complexity of a major business process.”
“We also described some key points that one must pay attention to when working with an enterprise company. Because we are using a microservice architecture, we have to manage our interdependencies efficiently, and we have chosen the NuKeeper tool to help us automate that. “We also use Azure API Management to help the discovery of our APIs, to unify our APIs’ security settings, and configure rate limiting on them. We explained why a good logging mechanism is important and why we chose Azure Application Insights. We think these are important topics to investigate when your team works with a microservice architecture.”
