Job Companies and Reviews Microservices Architecture v1.0.0 Release Notes 🎉 🎉

Summary

We are excited to announce the official release of version v1.0.0 for our Job Companies and Reviews Microservices Architecture. This release represents a significant leap forward, transforming the system into a modular and scalable architecture, built to efficiently handle growing demands in job listings, company management, and review processing.

New Features

🛠️ Microservices Architecture

Standalone Services: The transition from a monolithic structure to independent microservices (company-service, job-service, review-service) is now complete, enhancing both modularity and scalability.
Service Registry: Eureka Server has been integrated to manage dynamic service discovery and registration, ensuring smooth and reliable communication between microservices.

⚙️ Asynchronous Communication

RabbitMQ Integration: Asynchronous communication between microservices is now supported via RabbitMQ, improving system resilience and scalability.

🚀 Distributed Tracing and Monitoring

Zipkin Integration: Distributed tracing has been implemented with Zipkin, enabling comprehensive monitoring and tracing of requests across all microservices.

📜 API Gateway

Spring Cloud Gateway: An API Gateway has been implemented for intelligent routing, load balancing, and security, providing a seamless entry point for all API requests.

🗄️ Dockerization

Docker Support: The entire architecture is now containerized, allowing for consistent environments across development, testing, and production. Docker Compose is also provided for simplified local deployment.

Documentation

Comprehensive README: The README has been updated to reflect the new architecture:
- Project Overview: Detailed insights into the system's architecture and components.
- Setup Instructions: Step-by-step guide to installing and running the microservices.
- API Documentation: Detailed API documentation for all endpoints across the services (company-service, job-service, review-service).
