Unleashing the Power of Microservices with Dapr and Azure Container Apps
summary
Live demo builds a small microservices shop using .NET, a YARP gateway, and Dapr sidecar communication; local setup runs multiple microservices (5+ services) with Redis and Cosmos DB emulators, publishes events to Azure Service Bus, and attaches the Visual Studio debugger to all services simultaneously so the flow actually works. Deployment pipeline creates containers and pushes to ACR, then updates Azure Container Apps with managed KEDA auto-scaling. Caveats: local developer UX is rough and ACA pins Dapr versions (1.11 vs 1.12 mismatch).
