NET Microservices Architecture for Containerised NET Applications
I came across this guide as it is an introduction to developing microservices-based applications and managing them using containers. It discusses architectural design and implementation approaches using .NET Core and Docker containers. To make it easier to get started with containers and microservices, the guide focuses on a reference containerized and microservice-based application that you can explore. The sample application is available at the eShopOnContainers GitHub repo.

event bus interface
How do you achieve anonymity between publisher and subscriber? An easy way is to let a middleman take care of all the communication. An event bus is one such middleman.

The Microsoft Azure Service Bus
I’m going to take a high-level overview of the Microsoft Azure Service Bus. I’ll discuss briefly the four services that make up the Service Bus.

Claim-Check Pattern
I’ve been using an Event Bus for some time now in the designs of a system, for reason of performance and scalability. There is also an issue with the message size. But it would be best if you were using the Event Bus as a messaging system, not a data transport mechanism.
There is a solution to this, and it is the claim-check pattern.

Designing APIs
A good API design is important in a system architecture because all data exchange between services happens either through messages or API calls. APIs must be efficient to avoid creating chatty I/O. Because services are designed by teams working independently, APIs must have well-defined semantics and versioning schemes, so that updates don’t break other services.

Next-Generation Application Development
The world of IT infrastructure has evolved dramatically since the days of relying solely on bare metal hardware to support application development. In the early 2000s, a company called VMWare broke the mould, giving rise to virtualization — using an abstraction that makes software (virtual machines) look and behave like hardware. The primary difference between virtualization and bare metal is the inherent benefit of using software to “virtualize” infrastructure. Virtualization offers increased flexibility, scalability, reliability, and often overall capability and performance, all while lowering capital and operational expenses.

WebSocket Security Issues
Places I have been working they have banded the use of WebSockets to pushing data to the end-user, or devices. I want to delve into the concept of WebSocket introduced in HTML 5, security issues around the WebSocket model, and the best practices that should be adopted to address security issues around WebSocket.

Push Notifications
What are Push Notifications?
A notification is a message that pops up on the user’s device. Notifications can be triggered locally by an open application, or they can be “pushed” from the server to the user even when the app is not running. They allow your users to opt-in to timely updates and allow you to effectively re-engage users with customised content.

What is Event-Driven Microservice Architecture?
In an event-driven architecture, when a service performs some piece of work that other services might be interested in, that service produces an event—a record of the completed action. Other services consume those events so that they can perform any of their tasks needed as a result of the event. Unlike with REST, services that create requests do not need to know the details of the services consuming the requests. Here’s a simple example: When an order is placed on an e-commerce site, a single “order placed” event is produced and then consumed by several microservices:
