I am designing a new microservice architecture and need to understand best practices for inter-service communication and transaction management. Find the key patterns or strategies Chris Richardson recommends for both, and identify any anti-patterns or pitfalls to avoid in these areas.
Navigate to the 'Patterns' section from the homepage or main navigation. Locate and click on the 'Inter-service communication' pattern. Identify key patterns or strategies for inter-service communication described on the page. Navigate back to the 'Patterns' section or main navigation. Locate and click on the 'Transaction management' pattern. Identify key patterns or strategies for transaction management described on the page. Navigate to the 'Articles' section. Search for articles tagged with 'anti-patterns' that might relate to inter-service communication or transaction management. Synthesize the identified patterns/strategies and anti-patterns/pitfalls for both inter-service communication and transaction management.
Successfully navigate to the 'Inter-service communication' pattern page and identify at least two recommended patterns/strategies (e.g., synchronous vs. asynchronous, API Gateway, direct communication, messaging). Successfully navigate to the 'Transaction management' pattern page and identify at least two recommended patterns/strategies (e.g., Sagas, Distributed Transactions, Eventual Consistency). Successfully navigate to the 'Articles' section and find an article or section discussing anti-patterns relevant to inter-service communication or transaction management (e.g., 'Two-phase commit' as an anti-pattern for distributed transactions, or tight coupling in communication). Clearly list the identified patterns/strategies for inter-service communication. Clearly list the identified patterns/strategies for transaction management. Clearly state at least one anti-pattern or pitfall related to either inter-service communication or transaction management.
