Instead of starting from abstract patterns, the book follows a concrete case study—a food ordering and delivery platform—built step by step using Azure Service Bus, Azure Functions, Azure Communication Services, Azure Container Apps, Key Vault, Application Insights, and Azure OpenAI or compatible AI services.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003eThese topics are especially important now for several reasons. Modern systems are increasingly distributed, integrated, and real-time: users expect instant notifications, businesses integrate with partners across tenants, and services must stay responsive even under heavy load or partial failures. Event-driven design is one of the few approaches that addresses scalability, resilience, and decoupling at the same time—but many teams still struggle to move from simple REST APIs and create jobs to robust event pipelines. At the same time, AI is moving from “nice demo” to “must-have,” yet most guidance focuses on chatbots, not on how to use AI to help operations teams understand and control complex event flows.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003eThis book aims to fill that gap. It shows everyday cloud developers how to evolve from a single API to a production-style event-driven system, how to make responsible use of AI for summaries, anomaly hints, and decision support, and how to keep everything observable, secure, and cost-aware. While the tools are Azure-native, the patterns—events before endpoints, contracts and versioning, sagas and compensations, DLQ handling, back-pressure, and AI-assisted operations—are portable to any modern cloud platform. The goal is that readers finish with a working blueprint they can adapt directly in their own organizations, not just theory.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eWhat You Will Learn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e* Learn how to model business flows as domain events, design robust event contracts, and evolve them safely over time without breaking consumers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e* Use Azure Service Bus, Azure Functions, and Container-based APIs together to implement reliable, loosely coupled workflows such as user registration, order processing, and notification pipelines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e* Integrate Azure OpenAI (or compatible models) into event flows for tasks like summarizing operational data, prioritizing work, detecting anomalies, and enhancing customer communication—without turning the system into an expensive “AI toy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e* Implement patterns like outbox, retries, dead-letter queues, idempotent consumers, and back-pressure so the system keeps working under real-world load and partial outages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e* Protect secrets with Key Vault, use managed identities and role-based access control correctly, and design multi-tenant and cross-team boundaries for larger organizations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e* U\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003ese Application Insights and log queries to trace an order from start to finish, set meaningful SLOs, tune performance and cost, and automate deployments with GitHub Actions and infrastructure-as-code.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSourabh Mishra\u003c\/strong\u003e is an entrepreneur, developer, author, speaker, corporate trainer, and animator.
