The Complete Guide to TypeScript Microservices with Fastify, Docker, and CI/CD

The Complete Guide to TypeScript Microservices with Fastify, Docker, and CI/CD: Accelerate API Development and Automate Deployments with Proven GitHub Actions Workflows

Building scalable, production-ready APIs is one of the toughest challenges in modern development. How do you move beyond "it works on my machine" to microservices that run consistently in any environment, scale under real traffic, and deploy automatically without breaking?

This book delivers the complete blueprint. Step by step, you'll learn how to architect TypeScript microservices with Fastify, package them into portable Docker containers, and automate testing and deployments with GitHub Actions. Every chapter is grounded in hands-on, real-world workflows you can apply immediately to your own projects.

You'll start by mastering Fastify and TypeScript fundamentals, structuring projects for maintainability, and securing your services with authentication, authorization, and logging. From there, you'll explore database integration with Prisma, advanced API features like GraphQL and WebSockets, and industry-proven testing strategies. Once your services are ready, you'll containerize with Docker, optimize images for production, and set up GitHub Actions pipelines for continuous integration and deployment. Finally, you'll tackle scaling, monitoring, and incident readiness-the realities of shipping to production.

By the end of this guide, you'll confidently be able to:

Build type-safe, high-performance APIs with Fastify and TypeScript

Implement clean architecture patterns for scalable microservices

Secure endpoints with JWT, sessions, and OWASP best practices

Integrate PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or SQLite using Prisma ORM

Automate tests, builds, and deployments with GitHub Actions

Optimize Docker images and use Compose for multi-service development

Deploy to cloud providers like AWS ECS, Render, and Fly.io

Monitor, log, and prepare for production incidents with real tools

Whether you're an aspiring backend developer, a professional looking to modernize workflows, or a team lead seeking reliable deployment strategies, this book provides the complete toolkit for building and shipping TypeScript microservices at scale.

Stop struggling with brittle pipelines and inconsistent builds. Equip yourself with practical skills, reusable workflows, and proven automation strategies to deliver APIs faster, safer, and with confidence.
