Overview of this book

Traditionally associated with Windows desktop applications and game development, C# has expanded into web, cloud, and mobile development. However, despite its extensive coding features, professionals often encounter issues with efficiency, scalability, and maintainability due to poor code. Clean Code in C# guides you in identifying and resolving these problems using coding best practices. This book starts by comparing good and bad code to emphasize the importance of coding standards, principles, and methodologies. It then covers code reviews, unit testing, and test-driven development, and addresses cross-cutting concerns. As you advance through the chapters, you’ll discover programming best practices for objects, data structures, exception handling, and other aspects of writing C# computer programs. You’ll also explore API design and code quality enhancement tools, while studying examples of poor coding practices to understand what to avoid. By the end of this clean code book, you’ll have the developed the skills needed to apply industry-approved coding practices to write clean, readable, extendable, and maintainable C# code.

Service registration and discovery

Service discovery and registration are essential components of a microservices architecture that enable services to locate and communicate with each other in a dynamic and distributed environment. They facilitate the seamless interaction between services without the need for hardcoded configurations or static IP addresses. Let’s dive deeper into each concept.

Service discovery

Service discovery is the process by which services within a microservices architecture can dynamically find and identify other services that they need to interact with. In a traditional monolithic application, service locations may be hardcoded or configured statically. However, in a microservices environment, where services can be added, removed, or scaled independently, this static approach becomes impractical.

Service discovery involves a central component known as the “Service Registry,” which acts as a directory of available services and their...
