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.

Telemetry Capture and Integration

In modern applications, collecting and acting on the information made available by all layers of the application is a requirement for determining areas for improvement, root-cause analysis when things go wrong, and even capturing customized information to help drive insights into business-specific workflows and activities.

In this chapter, we will examine the different options for capturing application-level and service-level telemetry, and how to ensure that relevant information is captured without producing unnecessary noise or overhead. You will also learn how to pinpoint meaningful telemetry and aggregate that as opposed to aggregating everything, which can lead to confusion, large storage footprints, and distrust of the information captured.

By the end of this chapter, you will be able to do the following:

  • Identify the different types and levels of telemetry at the application, service, and component layers.
  • Learn to implement...
