Microservice pattern: 3rd party registration

[iluwatar]

Description:

The 3rd Party Registration design pattern is a fundamental microservices architecture pattern. This pattern involves registering third-party services with our system, allowing them to be easily discoverable and usable by other services within the ecosystem. By implementing this pattern, we ensure that our system can dynamically integrate and manage external services, enhancing modularity and scalability.

Key Elements of the 3rd Party Registration Design Pattern:

• Service Registry: A central registry where third-party services are registered and managed.
• Service Discovery: Mechanism for other services to discover and connect to registered third-party services.
• Registration Protocol: Standardized protocol for third-party services to register with the service registry.
• Health Check: Regular monitoring of the registered services to ensure they are operational.
• Security: Ensuring secure communication and authentication between services and the registry.

Acceptance Criteria:

1. A central service registry is implemented, allowing third-party services to register themselves.
2. Implement service discovery to enable other services to find and connect to registered third-party services.
3. Develop a standardized registration protocol that third-party services can use to register with the service registry.
4. Implement health checks to monitor the status of registered services and handle any failures gracefully.
5. Ensure secure communication and authentication mechanisms are in place between services and the registry.
