A number of Microservice API Patterns (MAP) realization examples can be found in the interface layers of the Java backends that implement the Lakeside Mutual microservices.

Responsibility Patterns

Pattern	Example (Class)	Backend Microservice(s)
Endpoint roles
Processing Resource	InsuranceQuoteRequestProcessingResource.java	Policy Management
Information Holder Resource	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Customer Core
	NotificationInformationHolder.java	Customer Management
	InteractionLogInformationHolder.java	Customer Management
Master Data Holder	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Customer Core
	PolicyInformationHolder.java	Policy Management
	UserInformationHolder.java	Customer Self Service
Operational Data Holder	InsuranceQuoteRequestProcessingResource.java	Policy Management
	InsuranceQuoteRequestProcessingResource.java	Customer Self Service
Reference Data Holder	CityReferenceDataHolder.java	Customer Core
Data Transfer Resource	Risk report transfer service (gRPC protocol buffer)	Risk Management
Link Lookup Resource	tba
Operation Responsibilities
Computation Function	computeRiskFactor in RiskComputationService.java	Policy Management
Retrieval Operation	getInsuranceQuoteRequests in InsuranceQuoteRequestProcessingResource.java	Customer Self Service, Policy Management
State Creation Operation	createInsuranceQuoteRequest in InsuranceQuoteRequestProcessingResource.java	Customer Self Service
State Transition Operation	respondToInsuranceQuote in InsuranceQuoteRequestProcessingResource.java	Customer Self Service, Policy Management

Quality Patterns

Pattern	Example (Class)	Backend Microservice(s)
Quality Management and Governance
API Key	APIKeyAuthenticationManager.java	Customer Core
Rate Limit	RateLimitInterceptor.java	Customer Self Service
Error Report	ErrorController.java	Customer Core
	ErrorController.java	Customer Management
	ErrorController.java	Customer Self Service
	ErrorController.java	Policy Management
	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Policy Management
Data Transfer Parsimony
Wish List	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Customer Core
	PolicyInformationHolder.java	Policy Management
Wish Template	tba
Request Bundle	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Customer Core
Conditional Request	tba
Reference Management
Embedded Entity	customerProfile in CustomerDto.java	e.g. Customer Management
Linked Information Holder	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Policy Management

Structure Patterns

Pattern	Example (Class)	Backend Microservice(s)
Atomic Parameter	CitiesResponseDto.java	Customer Core
Atomic Parameter List	AddressDto.java	Customer Core
Parameter Tree	CustomerResponseDto.java	Customer Core
Parameter Forest	CustomersResponseDto.java	Customer Core
Pagination	CustomerInformationHolder.java	Customer Core
	PaginatedCustomerResponseDto.java	Customer Core
	PaginatedPolicyResponseDto.java	Policy Management
Context Representation	tba
Element Stereotypes
Data Element	Data Transfer Objects (DTOs) in *.interfaces.dtos.* packages	All microservices
Id Element	customerId in CustomerDto.java	Customer Management, other microservices
Link Element	Pagination links in createPaginatedCustomerResponseDto in CustomerInformationHolder.java	Customer Core
Metadata Element	Control variant: instances of Pagination (e.g., PaginatedCustomerResponseDto.java)	Customer Core
	Aggregation variant: counts and averages in risk reports (CSV)	Risk Management
	Provenance variant: tba

Note that some classes appear in several projects; microservices are not supposed to share code libraries because that would break their independent deployability, one of the defining microservices tenets.

What are Microservices? Why Patterns?

Some answers to these questions can be found on the MAP website.
