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.

Message Brokers

As we saw in Chapter 2, The Producer-Consumer Pattern, the producer-consumer pattern is a highly effective way to handle messages at scale. Some of the scalability benefits can be seen in how programs can implement this pattern, while others can be seen in the infrastructure that enables the pattern. This chapter intends to dive deeper into message brokers while covering the following topics:

  • What is a message broker?
  • Inspecting messaging protocols, schemas, and delivery patterns
  • Implementing message broker technologies

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

  • Understand the concept of a message broker and how it is used in the scope of the event-driven architecture (EDA).
  • Know how to use schemas for messages, various protocols that are used to send and receive messages, and their delivery options
  • Know how to use specific implementations of message brokers and how to decide on the right technology
