Simplify Your Day As Developer

Handling Multiple versions of the same API gracefully is one of the common and yet difficult challenge in todays world of distributed application development.  This post will help you through the process of implementing API versioning using a .NET application. We will be creating a FastEndpoints project, focusing on custom middleware and route management. If you are new to FastEndPoints, Encourage you to go through this post : FastEndPoints Basics Why API Versioning? To ensure backward compatibility in a distributed application API-versioning plays a crucial role.  It allows programmers to introduce new features, fix bugs, and make improvements without affecting existing clients. By managing different versions of API, you can offer a smooth transition for users while continuously evolving your service. The Challenge with Duplicate Routes Duplicate Routes is one common issue when implementing API-Versioning. This can occur when you try to manage multiple versions of the same API

Small String Optimization (SSO) is a powerful feature in modern C++ compilers that can significantly improve the performance of string operations. However, you might encounter some challenges when working with Visual Studio 2019. This comprehensive guide will delve deep into what SSO is, why it's beneficial, its common associated issues, and how you can effectively manage these issues in Visual Studio 2019. What is Small String Optimization (SSO)?  SSO is an optimization technique used by C++ compilers to store short strings directly within the string object itself, instead of allocating memory on the heap. This is done to avoid dynamic memory allocation overhead, which can be relatively slow and inefficient for small strings. How SSO Works  When a string is created, the compiler checks if the string length is less than a certain threshold (usually around 15 characters). If the string is short enough, it is stored directly within the string object. If it exceeds the thresho

The Outbox Pattern is a design pattern that separates the production of messages from their consumption. It makes sure that messages are delivered and processed consistently across services. The Outbox Pattern is important for making sure that communication in distributed systems, especially with microservices, is reliable and consistent.  The Challenge of Reliable Communication in Microservices Imagine you run an online store with various microservices: an `Order Service` that handles orders and a `Notification Service` that sends email notifications to customers when their orders are placed. In a simple setup, the `Order Service` might send a direct request to the `Notification Service` to notify the customer. But what if something goes wrong? - Service Unavailability: The `Notification Service` could be down temporarily. If this happens right when an order is placed, the notification might never be sent. - Network Issues: Even if both services are up, network problems could pr
