event-driven architecture
About this tag
Event-driven architecture (EDA) is a design pattern where systems respond to events in real time, enabling scalable and efficient cloud applications. On WindowsForum.com, discussions focus on implementing EDA using Microsoft Azure services such as Azure Functions, Event Grid, Blob Storage, and Service Bus. Topics include direct publishing from API Management to Service Bus, serverless computing with Azure Functions and Container Apps, and tools like Hyperlight for fast virtualization in event-driven workloads. The content covers practical tips, architectural patterns, and real-world use cases for building event-driven systems on Azure, emphasizing decoupling, scalability, and reduced operational overhead.
Microsoft’s API Management (APIM) now includes a built‑in policy that can publish messages directly to Azure Service Bus, turning API calls into first‑class events without the glue code or adapter services that teams have used until now.
Background
Azure API Management is a gateway and policy...
In the new era of artificial intelligence, cloud-native development, and global digital transformation, the rise of serverless computing on Microsoft Azure has shifted from technical novelty to enterprise necessity. The Forrester Wave™: Serverless Development Platforms, Q2 2025, recently...
Serverless computing has rapidly transitioned from a niche architectural approach to a pervasive force that is fundamentally transforming how enterprises build, run, and optimize business applications. Nowhere is this more clearly demonstrated than in the shipping and logistics sector, where...
Cloud computing has rapidly evolved from an industry buzzword to an essential business utility, fundamentally reshaping how organizations of all sizes operate. Among the key players in this arena, Microsoft Azure stands out not only for its comprehensive service portfolio but for its strategic...
Serverless computing has rapidly emerged as one of the most transformative paradigms in cloud technology, reshaping how applications are built, deployed, and managed in today’s software landscape. While the term “serverless” may sound like an oxymoron, there are certainly servers behind the...
Ah, Event-Driven Architecture (EDA)—the buzzword that makes you sound like a tech-savvy ninja in any IT gumbo. But let’s cut through the hype and get down to the brass tacks: EDA isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a powerful way to engineer scalable, efficient, and modern systems that respond to...
In an age where cloud computing has become the lifeblood of modern applications, Microsoft has unveiled Hyperlight, a groundbreaking virtual machine manager that's poised to redefine how event-driven applications operate at scale. Built using Rust, Hyperlight delivers a streamlined approach to...
