Using gRPC in Microservices Communication with .Net 5

You will learn how to Build a high–performance gRPC Inter–service Communication between backend microservices with .Net 5 and AspNet 5.

Microservices are modern distributed systems so with gRPC in ASP.NET 5, we will develop high–performance, cross–platform applications for building distributed systems and APIs. It’s an ideal choice for communication between backend microservices, internal network applications, or iot devices and services. With the release of ASP.NET 5, Microsoft has added first–class support for creating gRPC services with Asp.Net 5.

This course will led you get started building, developing and managing gRPC servers and clients on distributed microservices architecture.

Check the overall picture

You can see that we will have 6 microservices which we are going to develop one by one.

We will use Worker Services and Asp.Net 5 Grpc Applications to build client and server gRPC components defining proto service definition contracts.

We will implement realworld e–commerce use case with only gRPC communication. We will have 3 gRPC server applications which are Product — ShoppingCart and Discount gRPC services. And we will have 2 worker services which are Product and ShoppingCart Worker Service. Worker services will be client and perform operations over the gRPC server applications. And we will secure the gRPC services with standalone Identity Server microservices with OAuth 2.0 and JWT token.
