Mastering Event-Driven Microservices in AWS

Key Features
? Master the art of leveraging AWS serverless services to build robust event-driven systems.
? Gain expertise in implementing advanced event-driven patterns in AWS.
? Develop advanced skills in production-ready practices for testing, monitoring, and optimizing event-driven microservices in AWS.

Book Description
In the bookMastering Event-Driven Microservices in AWS, author Lefteris Karageorgiou takes you on a comprehensive journey through the world of event-driven architectures and microservices. This practical guide equips you with the knowledge and skills to design, build, and operate resilient, scalable, and fault-tolerant systems using AWS serverless services.

Through concrete examples and code samples, you’ll learn how to construct real-world event-driven microservices architectures, such as point-to-point messaging, pub/sub messaging, event streaming, and advanced architectures like event sourcing, CQRS, circuit breakers, and sagas. Leveraging AWS services like AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, Amazon EventBridge, Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS, Amazon SQS, AWS Step Functions, and Amazon Kinesis, you’ll gain hands-on experience in building robust event-driven applications.

The book goes beyond just theory and delves into production-ready practices for testing, monitoring, troubleshooting, and optimizing your event-driven microservices. By the end of this comprehensive book, you’ll have the confidence and expertise to design, build, and run mission-critical event-driven microservices in AWS, empowering you to tackle complex distributed systems challenges with ease.
