Questions and Answers

What are the two main communication modes?

  • Request/response and loosely coupled
  • Synchronous and decoupled
  • Synchronous and asynchronous (correct)
  • Asynchronous and tightly integrated

What is the difference between synchronous and asynchronous communication?

  • Synchronous and asynchronous communication both require the caller to wait for a response
  • Synchronous and asynchronous communication are the same thing.
  • Synchronous requires the caller to wait for a response, while asynchronous allows the caller to continue with other tasks. (correct)
  • Synchronous allows the caller to continue with other tasks, while asynchronous requires the caller to wait for a response

Study Notes

  • There are two main communication modes: request/response and asynchronous.
  • Request/response involves a client sending a request to a server and waiting for a response.
  • Synchronous communication requires the caller to wait for a response within a certain timespan.
  • Asynchronous communication allows the caller to continue with other tasks while waiting for a response.
  • Synchronous systems are easy to implement and understand, but can be tightly coupled.
  • Asynchronous systems are decoupled, resilient, and easily scalable.
  • Asynchronous communication can be realized using frameworks like Akka or external components like Kafka, Pulsar, or RabbitMQ.
  • Request/response is useful for building APIs for UI-based clients and tightly integrated services.
  • Asynchronous communication is useful for UI-based projects with background processing and loosely coupled microservices.
  • Asynchronous messaging integrations are the most viable option for scaling.
