Microservices with Azure

Microsoft Azure is rapidly evolving and is widely used as a platform on which one can build Microservices that can be deployed on premise and on cloud through Microsoft Azure Service Fabric. With this book you will understand the concepts of Microservices architecture and how you can build highly maintainable and scalable applications using various services of Microsoft Azure.

We will begin with laying out the foundation of Microservices and its advantages over monolithic architecture and service oriented architecture. We will showcase various scenarios where Microservices should and should not be used and you will also understand the architecture of Microservices based system. You will get an in depth look at Microsoft Azure Service Fabric, which is the platform for building Microservices. You will explore how to develop and deploy sample applications on Microsoft Azure Service Fabric to have a thorough understanding of it. We will also take you through several design patterns that solve the various challenges associated with realizing Microservices architecture in industrial applications. Each pattern will be clearly illustrated with example and code.

Finally, you will be introduce to advanced topics that cover possible architectures for Microservices such as CQRS and Event Sourcing. You will learn how to use Microservices architecture to realize an IoT solution.
