Building Microservices with .NET Core 2.0 - Second Edition

Overview of this book

The microservices architectural style promotes the development of complex applications as a suite of small services based on business capabilities. This book will help you identify the appropriate service boundaries within your business. We'll start by looking at what microservices are and their main characteristics. Moving forward, you will be introduced to real-life application scenarios; after assessing the current issues, we will begin the journey of transforming this application by splitting it into a suite of microservices using C# 7.0 with .NET Core 2.0. You will identify service boundaries, split the application into multiple microservices, and define service contracts. You will find out how to configure, deploy, and monitor microservices, and configure scaling to allow the application to quickly adapt to increased demand in the future. With an introduction to reactive microservices, you’ll strategically gain further value to keep your code base simple, focusing on what is more important rather than on messy asynchronous calls.

Summary

Inter-service communication is possible with synchronous or asynchronous communication, which are styles of collaboration. Microservices should have asynchronous APIs. The API gateway is a proxy server that provides a way to allow various clients to interact with APIs. API management, as an API gateway, provides plenty of features to manage/host various RESTful APIs. There are various patterns that help us communicate with microservices. With the use of Azure Bus Service, we can easily manage and play with inter-service communication using the Azure Bus Service message queue; services can easily send or receive messages between themselves through this. Eventual consistency talks about scalable systems with high scalability, and it is proven by the CAP theorem.

In the next chapter, we will discuss various testing strategies to test an application and build on the microservice...
