Summary

In this chapter, we introduced and explained the need for the saga pattern. We discussed how saga handles nonfunctional requirements that are commonly overlooked. We also discussed the fallacies of distributed computing. We briefly discussed the need for NServiceBus, its installation, and how it helps to improve the quality of software while it provides support for nonfunctional requirements.

In the next chapter, we will discuss a particular service platform that includes ServicePulse, ServiceControl, ServiceInsight, and ServiceMatrix.
