Chapter 6: A Practical Example of Microservices with NATS
At this point, we have a strong understanding of the microservice architecture and the NATS messaging technology. In this chapter, we are going to use our knowledge to build a real-world application using a microservice architecture with NATS as the inter-service communication mechanism. We will use the reference architecture of microservices that we discussed in the previous chapter to implement an application for a healthcare service provider such as a hospital.
The following topics will be covered in this chapter:
- Understanding the use case of a hospital outpatient department (OPD)
- Defining the solution architecture
- Implementing microservices
- Setting up the NATS servers cluster
