Overview of this book

This Learning Path helps you understand microservices architecture and leverage various services of Microsoft Azure Service Fabric to build, deploy, and maintain highly scalable enterprise-grade applications. You will learn to select an appropriate Azure backend structure for your solutions and work with its toolkit and managed apps to share your solutions with its service catalog. As you progress through the Learning Path, you will study Azure Cloud Services, Azure-managed Kubernetes, and Azure Container Services deployment techniques. To apply all that you’ve understood, you will build an end-to-end Azure system in scalable, decoupled tiers for an industrial bakery with three business domains. Toward the end of this Learning Path, you will build another scalable architecture using Azure Service Bus topics to send orders between decoupled business domains with scalable worker roles processing these orders. By the end of this Learning Path, you will be comfortable in using development, deployment, and maintenance processes to build robust cloud solutions on Azure. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Learn Microsoft Azure by Mohamed Wali • Implementing Azure Solutions - Second Edition by Florian Klaffenbach, Oliver Michalski, Markus Klein • Microservices with Azure by Namit Tanasseri and Rahul Rai

Deconstructing Service Fabric


A Service Fabric application can be logically decomposed into multiple components. As a pro developer, you write your application using one of the programming models and supply the necessary configurations and data to make your code work, Service Fabric takes care of the rest of the stack and ensures that your code executes in a reliable and highly available environment. Let us take a look at the various components of a Service Fabric application and go through the individual components, starting from the infrastructure model:

Components of Service Fabric application

Infrastructure model

In a distributed computing platform such as Service Fabric, the computing load is distributed over all the available compute units, which are actually a number of virtual machines that work together. Because Service Fabric clusters can be deployed on any platform and on physical or virtual machines, your Service Fabric applications can run on a variety of platforms without any...
