Thinking Asynchronously: App Integration Patterns for Microservices
summary
Explains concrete async patterns and AWS tools: point‑to‑point queues with dead‑letter handling, pub/sub fan‑out, event routing with EventBridge, and orchestration with Step Functions (supports ~220 service integrations, workflows that can wait up to a year). Shows Step Functions running Athena queries as a long job example and SQS handling peaks — Amazon reports 70 million messages/sec on Black Friday, demonstrating real scale. Includes redrive for DLQs and request/response, callback and run‑job patterns.
