Overview

What is Misk

Misk (Microservice Container in Kotlin) is an open source microservice container from Cash App. It allows you to quickly create a microservice in Kotlin or Java, and provides libraries for common concerns like serving endpoints, caching, queueing, persistence, distributed leasing and clustering. It also includes the Wisp library, which is a collection of Kotlin modules providing various features and utilities, including config, logging, feature flags and more.

It has been powering hundreds of microservices within Cash App since 2018.
