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.

Observability Revisited

In Chapter 7, Microservice Observability, we looked at how to enable the internal observability of microservices. We examined how to aggregate metrics, logs, and traces so that we can efficiently observe and understand performance and problems across a distributed, highly scalable solution.

In this chapter, we will look at how to make our services externally observable to others. You will learn about methodologies for publishing service metadata to your organization, cataloging and versioning microservice metadata, and how to promote the discovery of shared services within an organization.

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

  • Understand how to expose service information with service metadata
  • Understand how to leverage service discovery and implement it using Consul
  • Learn about service publishing and understand the supporting features of Azure API Management
  • Learn about the Ortelius service offering and how...
