Communication Patterns
Communication is how components, services, and teams exchange information. It can be synchronous or asynchronous, direct or mediated by queues, and each choice affects coupling, latency, and reliability.
The resources below cover REST, messaging, gRPC, WebSockets, event-driven communication, and team communication. Each guide helps you choose and implement the right communication model.
Every resource includes clear explanations, copy-paste code, and practical warnings. Use them to make informed decisions, avoid production pitfalls, and speed up your delivery. If you are just getting started, read the beginner-friendly articles first; if you are experienced, jump straight to the advanced patterns and architecture guides. New resources are added regularly, so bookmark this page and check back for the latest patterns.
