Resumen
Fault tolerance and the availability of applications, computing infrastructure, and commu-
nications systems during unexpected events are critical in cloud environments. The microservices
architecture, and the technologies that it uses, should be able to maintain acceptable service levels in
the face of adverse circumstances. In this paper, we discuss the challenges faced by cloud infrastruc-
ture in relation to providing resilience to applications. Based on this analysis, we present our approach
for a software platform based on a microservices architecture, as well as the resilience mechanisms
to mitigate the impact of infrastructure failures on the availability of applications. We demonstrate
the capacity of our platform to provide resilience to analytics applications, minimizing service
interruptions and keeping acceptable response times.
