Microservices Design Patterns in .NET - Second Edition
By :
This chapter provided an in-depth examination of asynchronous communication in microservices architecture, emphasizing its importance for scalability, resilience, and flexibility. It contrasted synchronous communication, where services interact directly and require immediate responses, with asynchronous communication, which allows services to operate independently, improving system robustness.
We began with the challenges of synchronous designs, such as user experience delays and tightly coupled service responsibilities, and introduced asynchronous patterns as solutions. Scenarios such as booking systems in health management applications demonstrate the practicality of offloading non-critical operations such as email notifications or calendar entries to asynchronous workflows. By focusing on key operations, such as booking appointments and handling other tasks asynchronously, the system ensures responsiveness and a better user experience.
Key strategies for asynchronous...
