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.

Redundancy and enabling business continuity

Whether an outage occurs due to a transient error or a regional failure, ensuring continuity can take different forms. For highly critical applications, data, and files, having a good business continuity plan in place will help business functions to keep carrying forward. Normally, business continuity is managed as a separate function but ultimately contributes to a larger disaster recovery plan for the organization.

A common scenario where having a business continuity plan helps is when there is an outage related to office documents or functionality. Many companies have a shared or distributed filesystem where spreadsheets and documents are often stored, and when shared documents are unavailable to users, it can impact a business’s daily work effort. While many online services, such as Google Docs and Microsoft 365, can offer a much more durable means of managing and accessing critical documents, even those services can fall victim...
