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.

Implementing autoscaling for Azure App Service

While a heavy focus on Kubernetes has been present throughout this book as well as this chapter, you may wish to leverage less complex Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) components to host your application. Azure App Service offers a much lower barrier to entry than Kubernetes and allows you to craft different service types based on your needs. Autoscaling is one of the many features built into App Service and can be configured through different avenues. Two such avenues are those of Azure Monitor, the platform-level monitoring and alerting suite, and Application Insights. We’ll also be examining some App Service specifics that can be applied to Web Apps, as well as API Apps.

Common platform options

One of the benefits of using cloud-native platform components is that you can apply them to just about any resource type within the cloud environment you’re using. With Azure Monitor, you can tap into a large ecosystem of monitors...
