Chapter 11. Message-Driven Microservices

We have already discussed many features around microservice-based architecture provided by Spring Cloud. However, we have always been considering synchronous, RESTful-based inter-service communication. As you probably remember from Chapter 1, Introduction to Microservices, there are some other popular communication styles, such as publish/subscribe or asynchronous, event-driven point-to-point messaging. In this chapter, I would like to introduce a different approach to microservices than that presented in previous chapters. We will talk in more detail about how you can work with Spring Cloud Stream in order to build message-driven microservices.

Topics we will cover in this chapter include:

The main terms and concepts related to Spring Cloud Stream
Using RabbitMQ and Apache Kafka message brokers as binders
The Spring Cloud Stream programming model
Advanced configurations of binding, producers, and consumers
Implementation of scaling, grouping, and partitioning...
