Scalable Microservices Template with NestJS, RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, Redis and Minio (Docker and K8S)

Overview

Octopus is an innovative microservices template designed specifically for developers looking to harness the power of scalable distributed systems. Built using modern technologies like NestJS, RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, and Redis, Octopus provides a robust framework that simplifies the process of application development. With its compatibility with both Docker and Kubernetes, it sets the stage for seamless deployment while utilizing MinIO for reliable object storage. The system's structured approach allows developers to efficiently manage files and services, streamlining the development workflow.

This platform not only supports various file formats but also implements intelligent caching and image manipulation features. With Octopus, developers can focus on crafting high-quality applications while leveraging the solid architectural foundation it offers.

Features

  • Three Hearts of Functionality: Just like an octopus has three hearts, this template powers your microservices with robust functionalities to manage different aspects effectively.
  • Advanced Storage Options: It integrates MinIO for object storage, providing a secure and scalable solution for all file handling across services.
  • Multipurpose File Support: Octopus supports a wide array of file formats including images, documents, media files, and compressed files, making it versatile for various applications.
  • Dynamic Access Control: It features a user access system that supports role-based dynamic access, ensuring secure management of resources.
  • Intelligent Image Handling: The template offers capabilities to resize and change the quality of images on-the-fly, optimizing performance and enhancing user experience.
  • Comprehensive Caching Mechanisms: With built-in caching for GET endpoints and special decorators, you can fine-tune your caching strategy to enhance the speed and efficiency of your services.
  • Structured Environment Management: Facilitating separate migration environments (development, stage, production) allows for organized and straightforward management of version control.
  • User-Friendly Documentation: The inclusion of Swagger documentation makes it easy to understand and access various services within the application, promoting a smoother developer experience.
