Azure Service Fabric¶
Organizations need to build and manage scalable and reliable microservices and containers. This requires a distributed systems platform that simplifies packaging, deployment, and management.
Problem¶
A financial services company needs to build and manage a highly available and scalable application. The application involves transaction processing, user authentication, and data analytics. The company requires a solution to deploy and manage microservices efficiently.
Problem Analysis¶
Processing a high volume of transactions generates many events that must be handled in real-time. Managing servers and networking components is time-consuming and costly. The company needs a solution that automatically scales, reduces operational overhead, and ensures high availability and reliability. The solution should support both stateless and stateful microservices.
Solution¶
Azure Service Fabric is a distributed systems platform for packaging, deploying, and managing scalable and reliable microservices and containers. Service Fabric supports both stateless and stateful microservices. The company can create a Service Fabric cluster, develop microservices in their preferred language, and deploy them to the cluster. Service Fabric provides auto-scaling and load balancing for high performance and availability. Service Fabric Explorer and Azure Monitor are used to track performance and health.
