Description

To deliver software at a faster rate and reduced costs, companies with stable legacy systems and growing data volumes are trying to modernize their applications and accelerate innovation, but this is no easy matter. A Developer’s Guide to Building Resilient Cloud Applications with Azure helps you overcome these application modernization challenges to build secure and reliable cloud-based applications on Azure and connect them to databases with the help of easy-to-follow examples. The book begins with a basic definition of serverless and event-driven architecture and Database-as-a-Service, before moving on to an exploration of the different services in Azure, namely Azure API Management using the gateway pattern, event-driven architecture, Event Grid, Azure Event Hubs, Azure message queues, FaaS using Azure Functions, and the database-oriented cloud. Throughout the chapters, you’ll learn about creating, importing, and managing APIs and Service Fabric in Azure, and discover how to ensure continuous integration and deployment in Azure to fully automate the software delivery process, that is, the build and release process. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build and deploy cloud-oriented applications using APIs, serverless, Service Fabric, Azure Functions, and Event Grid technologies.

"A Developer's Guide to Building Resilient Cloud Applications with Azure" is a comprehensive resource for anyone looking to modernize applications using Azure's cloud services. This book is particularly valuable for those grappling with the challenges of transitioning from legacy systems to a more scalable, cloud-based architecture.Key strengths of the book include its detailed coverage of Azure services like Function-as-a-Service, Azure Service Fabric, Event Grid, and Azure Event Hubs. These sections provide not only theoretical understanding but also practical guidance on developing distributed applications and implementing event-based and message-based solutions.Another notable aspect is the book's focus on continuous deployment, especially for Docker with Azure DevOps. This integration is crucial for modern software development, and the book does an excellent job of explaining how to automate the software delivery process using Azure's CI/CD pipelines.For developers and IT professionals, the exploration of database options, such as managing Azure Storage and Azure Cosmos DB resources, is particularly useful. It provides a solid foundation for leveraging big data storage in Azure services and choosing the right service for specific scenarios.However, the book might be overwhelming for beginners due to its technical depth. It's more suited for those with some background in Azure or cloud services. Additionally, while it covers a vast range of topics, some readers might find the need for more in-depth case studies or real-world examples.In summary, this book is a valuable asset for developers and IT professionals looking to modernize applications using Azure. It offers a detailed exploration of various Azure services, making it a worthwhile investment for those looking to deepen their understanding of cloud-based application development.

I've started reading this book out of curiousity at first but it is so interesting that I've read it cover-to-cover in under a week!It's well written and provides practical guidance. I appreciated that there was a real-world scenario that I followed from chapter to chapter, each chapter adding a new piece to the puzzle. Concepts such as Serverless computing, Event streaming and API Gateway are explored in this book, which are at the core of Cloud solutions.I also really liked the fact that each chapter comes with exercises to engage me as a reader and allow me to practice each concept.I recommend it!

🚀 Overall this is a great book with in-depth subjects across the Azure stack.This is a personal view, but I believe it lacked the "Resilient" focus. The title could of been Building Cloud Native Applications with Azure and would be 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. I would still rate the book a well deserved and enjoyable read at 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐The whole resilient topic can be blurred across highly available, reliable and fault tolerance. Microsoft's view is "Reliability consists of two principles: resiliency and availability. The goal of resiliency is to return your application to a fully functioning state after a failure occurs. The goal of availability is to provide consistent access to your application or workload be users as they need to."Taking this view of returning the application to a fully functioning state after a failure occurs, yes the platform or Azure Infrastructure has resilience built-in, however building an application on Azure using Service Bus topics with other consuming applications could make use of Retry Policies. Or use cases for using the DLQ for poison messages using MessageReceiver.Abandon() method to reject the message from further processingespecially when processing of messages from a 3rd party cannot be guaranteed. You could also compare integration scenarios when using Azure Functions vs Logic Apps, with the latter giving more granular error handling.
