Azure design patterns related to messaging

Performance and scalability are key considerations when designing and deploying applications in the cloud and it is important to understand and apply various strategies and design patterns. Messaging patterns are often used to provide stability in cloud-based solutions, thus facilitating performant and scalable applications.

Ensuring reliable communication between components in a distributed or cloud-based system can be challenging due to network latency, component failures, or data inconsistencies. Implementing messaging patterns such as the Competing Consumers pattern and the Publisher-Subscriber pattern can help ensure reliable communication between components. These patterns use Azure services such as Service Bus queues, Service Bus topics, and Event Grid to manage and distribute messages, ensuring that components can communicate reliably and evolve independently.

Let us explore messaging patterns in more detail and appreciate how...
