Microservices Communication in ASP.NET Core 3
This course will teach you how to architect a microservice-based application and show how to organize the communication between different microservices as well as the different front-ends.
What you'll learn
Microservices are getting more traction as an architectural approach for the design of applications, also on the .NET stack. Although the ideas behind microservices are rather simple, it can be a daunting task to get started with the creation of a full system based on microservices. In this course, Microservices Communication in ASP.NET Core, you’ll learn to set up a microservice architecture and to arrange the communication between these different services. First, you’ll explore how to set up synchronous communication between different services. Next, you’ll discover the asynchronous variant of microservices communication using a service bus. Finally, you’ll learn how to connect different application front-ends by building a backend-for-frontend (BFF) and by implementing the API Gateway pattern. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of setting up communication between different services needed to create a resilient microservices architecture based on ASP.NET Core.
