This week Udi Dahan is joining The Azure DevOps Podcast! Udi is the founder of NServiceBus, the CEO of Particular Software, and Microsoft’s Regional Director. He is one of the world’s foremost experts on service-oriented architecture and domain-driven design.

 

He started programming when he was just 8 years old and got his first professional gig at 19 years old. Soon after, he got involved with .NET, then, a number of years later, became an independent consultant. Over the years, he saw that many of his clients were struggling with building their distributed solutions, and so he founded NServiceBus — “the most developer-friendly service bus for .NET.” Soon, that became part of a bigger project; his company, Particular Software.

 

In this episode, Jeffrey and Udi are discussing microservices and some of the trends, challenges, and problems in the software industry today. Udi gives his advice and recommendations to developers and teams on how to go about making decisions around microservices while giving examples of common mistakes and problems he often sees. He also gives advice on those looking to move forward with an existing legacy system they are trying to modernize as well as those who are looking to build something entirely new.
