Designing secure backend microservices involves implementing OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, JWT authentication, and RBAC. This Skill provides production-ready blueprints for Node.js, Python, Go, and Rust to structure authenticated APIs while mitigating OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities.

Migrating a monolith to microservices requires containerizing components with Docker multi-stage builds and orchestrating deployments via Kubernetes. This Skill provides implementation patterns for reliable CI/CD pipelines, observability, and scalable service decomposition.

Implementing JWT authentication and OAuth 2.1 in a NestJS API requires defining secure token flows and Argon2id password hashing. This Skill provides a quick start blueprint for configuring authenticated REST APIs with PostgreSQL and Redis caching.

Yes, this backend development Skill supports building GraphQL and gRPC APIs in Go. It provides architectural patterns and best practices for implementing performant, secure services across multiple protocols and languages including Node.js, Python, and Rust.

Yes, this backend architecture Skill fully supports PostgreSQL for relational data storage and Redis for caching. It provides guidance on database indexing, caching strategies, and observability to ensure your API backend maintains high performance under load.

You should avoid microservices architectures when your MVP lacks clear domain boundaries or your team cannot support complex CI/CD and observability overhead. This Skill helps evaluate when monolithic designs are safer before attempting a microservices migration.
