Quantitative finance: depending upon where you live, this may be an everyday requirement for you. Bigger cities and financial hubs, such as New York, Chicago, and London, will have this everywhere. But for those not familiar with the term, let's start with a brief description of what we are dealing with. Quantitative finance is a field of applied mathematics. It deals mostly with the modeling of financial markets. It overlaps heavily with computational finance and financial engineering, focusing on applications and modeling, as well as building tools for model implementation.

Overview of this book
C# is a powerful language when it comes to building applications and software architecture using rich libraries and tools such as .NET.
This book will harness the strength of C# in developing microservices architectures and applications.
This book shows developers how to develop an enterprise-grade, event-driven, asynchronous, message-based microservice framework using C#, .NET, and various open source tools. We will discuss how to send and receive messages, how to design many types of microservice that are truly usable in a corporate environment. We will also dissect each case and explain the code, best practices, pros and cons, and more.
Through our journey, we will use many open source tools, and create file monitors, a machine learning microservice, a quantitative financial microservice that can handle bonds and credit default swaps, a deployment microservice to show you how to better manage your deployments, and memory, health status, and other microservices. By the end of this book, you will have a complete microservice ecosystem you can place into production or customize in no time.
