Overview of this book

This book will guide you through various hands-on practical examples for implementing event-driven microservices architecture using C# 11 and .NET 7. It has been divided into three distinct sections, each focusing on different aspects of this implementation. The first section will cover the new features of .NET 7 that will make developing applications using EDA patterns easier, the sample application that will be used throughout the book, and how the core tenets of domain-driven design (DDD) are implemented in .NET 7. The second section will review the various components of a local environment setup, the containerization of code, testing, deployment, and the observability of microservices using an EDA approach. The third section will guide you through the need for scalability and service resilience within the application, along with implementation details related to elastic and autoscale components. You’ll also cover how proper telemetry helps to automatically drive scaling events. In addition, the topic of observability is revisited using examples of service discovery and microservice inventories. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to identify and catalog domains, events, and bounded contexts to be used for the design and development of a resilient microservices architecture.

CI/CD Pipelines and Integrated Testing

Continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) are two concepts that have been at the heart of software development for many years. The notion that faster compilation and faster delivery of code to environments brings faster feedback has allowed developers to receive and iterate on positive or constructive feedback. The end goal of this process is to release a better software product.

The discovery and usage of design patterns related to Agile software development do not have to be onerous. There are general constructs that help developers to better build and release their products based on the workflow that melds best with their team setup. Platforms such as GitHub take things a step further and can provide solutions to common build and release situations out of the box.

Throughout this chapter, we will explore different patterns, build pipelines using GitHub Actions, and incorporate integration testing that will help safeguard...
