Building Microservices with .NET Core 2.0 - Second Edition

By: Gaurav Aroraa

Overview of this book

The microservices architectural style promotes the development of complex applications as a suite of small services based on business capabilities. This book will help you identify the appropriate service boundaries within your business. We'll start by looking at what microservices are and their main characteristics. Moving forward, you will be introduced to real-life application scenarios; after assessing the current issues, we will begin the journey of transforming this application by splitting it into a suite of microservices using C# 7.0 with .NET Core 2.0. You will identify service boundaries, split the application into multiple microservices, and define service contracts. You will find out how to configure, deploy, and monitor microservices, and configure scaling to allow the application to quickly adapt to increased demand in the future. With an introduction to reactive microservices, you’ll strategically gain further value to keep your code base simple, focusing on what is more important rather than on messy asynchronous calls.

Preface

Distributed systems are always hard to get complete success with. Lately, microservices are getting a considerable amount of attention. With Netflix and Spotify, microservice implementations have the become the biggest success stories in the industry. On the other hand, there are people who are of the opinion that microservices are nothing new or that they are only a rebranding of SOA.

In any case, microservice architecture does have critical advantages—particularly with regard to empowering the agile improvement and conveyance of complex venture applications.

However, there is no clear practical advice on how to implement microservices in the Microsoft ecosystem and, especially, by taking advantage of Azure and the .NET Core framework. This book tries to fill that void.

It explores the concepts, challenges, and strengths around planning, constructing, and operating microservice architectures built with .NET Core 2.0. This book discusses all cross-cutting concerns along with the microservices design. It also highlights some important aspects to consider while building and operating microservices through practical How Tos and best practices for security, monitoring, and scalability.
