Airbnb’s microservice architecture went through 3 main stages. This post is based on the tech talk by Jessica Tai.
Monolith (2008 - 2017)
Airbnb began as a simple marketplace for hosts and guests. This is built in a Ruby on Rails application - the monolith.
What’s the challenge?
- Confusing team ownership + unowned code
- Slow deployment
Microservices (2017 - 2020)
Microservice aims to solve those challenges. In the microservice architecture, key services include:
- Data fetching service
- Business logic data service
- Write workflow service
- UI aggregation service
- Each service had one owning team
What’s the challenge?
Hundreds of services and dependencies were difficult for humans to manage.
Micro + macroservices (2020 - present)
This is what Airbnb is working on now. The micro and macroservice hybrid model focuses on the unification of APIs.
