Key benefits

  • Build resilient, stateless, and stateful microservice applications that run on the cloud and edge
  • Solve common distributed systems such as low latency and scaling using any language and framework
  • Use real-time and proactive monitoring tools to support a reliable and highly available system

Description

Over the last decade, there has been a huge shift from heavily coded monolithic applications to finer, self-contained microservices. Dapr is a new, open source project by Microsoft that provides proven techniques and best practices for developing modern applications. It offers platform-agnostic features for running your applications on public cloud, on-premises, and even on edge devices. This book will help you get to grips with microservice architectures and how to manage application complexities with Dapr in no time. You'll understand how Dapr offers ease of implementation while allowing you to work with multiple languages and platforms. You'll also understand how Dapr's runtime, services, building blocks, and software development kits (SDKs) help you to simplify the creation of resilient and portable microservices. Dapr provides an event-driven runtime that supports the essential features you need to build microservices, including service invocation, state management, and publish/subscribe messaging. You'll explore all of those in addition to various other advanced features with this practical guide to learning Dapr. By the end of this book, you'll be able to write microservices easily using your choice of language or framework by implementing industry best practices to solve problems related to distributed systems.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers looking to explore microservices architectures and implement them in Dapr applications using examples on Microsoft .NET Core. Whether you are new to microservices or have knowledge of this architectural approach and want to get hands-on experience in using Dapr, you’ll find this book useful. Familiarity with .NET Core will help you to understand the C# samples and code snippets used in the book.

What you will learn

  • Use Dapr to create services, invoking them directly and via pub/sub
  • Discover best practices for working with microservice architectures
  • Leverage the actor model to orchestrate data and behavior
  • Use Azure Kubernetes Service to deploy a sample application
  • Monitor Dapr applications using Zipkin, Prometheus, and Grafana
  • Scale and load test Dapr applications on Kubernetes

The Microservices domain benefitted massively from Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Netflix OSS early on. The Java ecosystem made rich contributions to Microservices. However, Polyglot remains a critical goal of the Microservice movement, and each team should be able to choose their languages and frameworks as long as they talk HTTP/REST. From that standpoint, the Distributed Application Runtime (Dapr) emergence from Microsoft plus its open-source nature is a very welcome change. The .NET Core stack maturity, regular release of versions like 5, and 6 and the emergence of framework support enriches the stack for Microservices development.The author has done an excellent job introducing the Distributed Application Runtime (Dapr) in this book and done so within 275 pages! While it has covered general topics such as API development, invoking APIs as a client, it is great to see an Actor framework (like Akka in the Java Ecosystem) coming up in the .NET ecosystem. While Dapr can be deployed standalone and in Kubernetes, I expect the latter to be a dominant force and chapter 8 on Kubernetes' deployment of Dapr is an asset!Overall excellent buy and can be completed in two weekends book and highly recommended. However, after completing this book, spend serious time covering solid nonfunctional requirements like security, monitoring, scalability and error handling, logging for both standalone and in Kubernetes before you consider Dapr for high traffic production applications. For other applications can use right away for having a feel.

A well-designed book. The author has well explained how to use the book and he shares all the source code through to GitHub. You will have a good understanding of what you should expect from the book at the beginning.The book teaches different ways of using Dapr. Everything has explaining step by step and provided all useful links and resources. All codes are well explained, there are enough screenshots to be able to follow up the steps, and related parts are highlighted within them. The topics are provided by diagrams. A good reference to learn Dapr technology.

Very informative and fantastic book - well written, practical examples, great depths into explaining certain concepts along with the implementations. One thing that stands out is how the author starts by stating what DAPR is and what will be covered in the following section. Great detail to writing. Davide goes into great detail explaining the implementation of microservices using DAPR and .NET, exactly what the title states with the term “practical”. This was super useful information especially when you want to learn microservices using .NET with DAPR.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
