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.

Technical requirements

There are several prerequisites you will need to have an understanding of or have installed on your machine to use the code base and follow along with the examples. These include the following:

  • Git
  • Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • Service-oriented architectures
  • Domain-Driven Design (DDD)

We will be using an application that has been custom-developed and is included with the source code for this book. The primary platform we will be using to develop in will be .NET 7. All examples will use Visual Studio 2022 as the primary integrated developer environment (IDE). Either Visual Studio 2022 or Visual Studio Code will be required to develop .NET 7 solutions.
