In a Microservices Architecture, services typically collaborate with each other to serve business use cases. These services may have their own software characteristics in terms of Availability, Scalability, Elasticity, etc. but there will always be a situation when the downstream service you are trying to communicate with is either not...

A practical guide to modular monoliths with .NET

In the last decade, “microservices” architectures have come into fashion for a variety of reasons. Like “Agile”, this term has taken on many meanings and interpretations over the years and — in many cases — has come to represent even not-so-micro-services. Whether true microservices like single-purpose serverless functions or “macroservices”...

Balancing Business Needs: Evaluating Architecture in Domain-Driven Design One topic has come up again and again over the years, sometimes more, sometimes less, in conversations among developers: What’s the best way to modularize software? As a longtime software developer, I’ve seen the tides shift and a variety of approaches rise...

Mastering the art of scalable and resilient systems with essential microservices design patterns Unleash the power of microservices Are you striving to build efficient, scalable, and resilient software systems? As a software developer or senior developer, you must have come across the term “microservices architecture.” This revolutionary approach to software...

Microservice architecture is one of the most discussed software architecture trends at the moment, and it has forever changed the way enterprise applications are built. Rather than the slow, complex monolithic approach of the past, developers and companies everywhere are turning to a microservices architecture to simplify and scale...

Today we will see, how to enable Logging directly to Loki via Serilog for a .NET Core Microservice and visualize the logs in Grafana. Before we start, What is Loki? Loki is a horizontally scalable, highly available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by Prometheus. It is designed to be...

In this article, we will discuss gRPC and perform CRUD Operation using that and step-by-step implementation of gRPC. We take Product Application here to understand how things are going to work with gRPC and, in that first, we create ProductOfferGrpcService which is used to create Product Offers and which...

We are going to discuss the RabbitMQ Message Queue and its implementation using .NET Core 6 API as Message Producer and Console Application as a Message Consumer. Agenda Introduction of RabbitMQ Benefits of using RabbitMQ Implementation of RabbitMQ in .NET Core 6 Prerequisites Visual Studio 2022 Docker Desktop .NET...

Microservices The term microservices portrays a software development style that has grown from contemporary trends to set up practices that are meant to increase the speed and efficiency of developing and managing software solutions at scale. Microservices is more about applying a certain number of principles and architectural patterns as...

Introduction During this article, we will learn how to work with the microservice architecture patterns and Docker containers using the .NET Core 3 platform to build a distributed system. Monolithic vs Microservices Architecture Before talking about Microservices, we need to understand the difference between traditional application approach and microservices application...
