Retry failed operations. Transient failures may occur due to momentary loss of network connectivity, a dropped database connection, or a timeout when a service is busy. Build retry logic into your application to handle transient failures. For many Azure services, the client SDK implements automatic retries. For more information, see Transient fault handling and the Retry pattern.

Protect failing remote services (Circuit Breaker). It's good to retry after a transient failure, but if the failure persists, you can end up with too many callers hammering a failing service. This can lead to cascading failures, as requests back up. Use the Circuit Breaker pattern to fail fast (without making the remote call) when an operation is likely to fail.

Isolate critical resources (Bulkhead). Failures in one subsystem can sometimes cascade. This can happen if a failure causes some resources, such as threads or sockets, not to get freed in a timely manner, leading to resource exhaustion. To avoid this, partition a system into isolated groups, so that a failure in one partition does not bring down the entire system.

Perform load leveling. Applications may experience sudden spikes in traffic that can overwhelm services on the backend. To avoid this, use the Queue-Based Load Leveling pattern to queue work items to run asynchronously. The queue acts as a buffer that smooths out peaks in the load.

Fail over. If an instance can't be reached, fail over to another instance. For things that are stateless, like a web server, put several instances behind a load balancer or traffic manager. For things that store state, like a database, use replicas and fail over. Depending on the data store and how it replicates, this may require the application to deal with eventual consistency.

Compensate failed transactions. In general, avoid distributed transactions, as they require coordination across services and resources. Instead, compose an operation from smaller individual transactions. If the operation fails midway through, use Compensating Transactions to undo any step that already completed.

Checkpoint long-running transactions. Checkpoints can provide resiliency if a long-running operation fails. When the operation restarts (for example, it is picked up by another VM), it can be resumed from the last checkpoint.

Degrade gracefully. Sometimes you can't work around a problem, but you can provide reduced functionality that is still useful. Consider an application that shows a catalog of books. If the application can't retrieve the thumbnail image for the cover, it might show a placeholder image. Entire subsystems might be noncritical for the application. For example, in an e-commerce site, showing product recommendations is probably less critical than processing orders.

Throttle clients. Sometimes a small number of users create excessive load, which can reduce your application's availability for other users. In this situation, throttle the client for a certain period of time. See the Throttling pattern.

Block bad actors. Just because you throttle a client, it doesn't mean client was acting maliciously. It just means the client exceeded their service quota. But if a client consistently exceeds their quota or otherwise behaves badly, you might block them. Define an out-of-band process for user to request getting unblocked.

Use leader election. When you need to coordinate a task, use Leader Election to select a coordinator. That way, the coordinator is not a single point of failure. If the coordinator fails, a new one is selected. Rather than implement a leader election algorithm from scratch, consider an off-the-shelf solution such as Zookeeper.

Test with fault injection. All too often, the success path is well tested but not the failure path. A system could run in production for a long time before a failure path is exercised. Use fault injection to test the resiliency of the system to failures, either by triggering actual failures or by simulating them.

Embrace chaos engineering. Chaos engineering extends the notion of fault injection, by randomly injecting failures or abnormal conditions into production instances.

Make all things redundant

Build redundancy into your application, to avoid having single points of failure.

Recommendations

Consider business requirements. The amount of redundancy built into a system can affect both cost and complexity. Your architecture should be informed by your business requirements, such as recovery time objective (RTO). For example, a multi-region deployment is more expensive than a single-region deployment, and is more complicated to manage. You will need operational procedures to handle failover and failback. The additional cost and complexity might be justified for some business scenarios and not others.

Place VMs behind a load balancer. Don't use a single VM for mission-critical workloads. Instead, place multiple VMs behind a load balancer. If any VM becomes unavailable, the load balancer distributes traffic to the remaining healthy VMs. To learn how to deploy this configuration, see Multiple VMs for scalability and availability.

Replicate databases. Azure SQL Database and Cosmos DB automatically replicate the data within a region, and you can enable geo-replication across regions. If you are using an IaaS database solution, choose one that supports replication and failover, such as SQL Server Always On Availability Groups.

Enable geo-replication. Geo-replication for Azure SQL Database and Cosmos DB creates secondary readable replicas of your data in one or more secondary regions. In the event of an outage, the database can fail over to the secondary region for writes.

Partition for availability. Database partitioning is often used to improve scalability, but it can also improve availability. If one shard goes down, the other shards can still be reached. A failure in one shard will only disrupt a subset of the total transactions.

Deploy to more than one region. For the highest availability, deploy the application to more than one region. That way, in the rare case when a problem affects an entire region, the application can fail over to another region. The following diagram shows a multi-region application that uses Azure Traffic Manager to handle failover.

Synchronize front and backend failover. Use Azure Traffic Manager to fail over the front end. If the front end becomes unreachable in one region, Traffic Manager will route new requests to the secondary region. Depending on your database solution, you may need to coordinate failing over the database.

Use automatic failover but manual failback. Use Traffic Manager for automatic failover, but not for automatic failback. Automatic failback carries a risk that you might switch to the primary region before the region is completely healthy. Instead, verify that all application subsystems are healthy before manually failing back. Also, depending on the database, you might need to check data consistency before failing back.

Include redundancy for Traffic Manager. Traffic Manager is a possible failure point. Review the Traffic Manager SLA, and determine whether using Traffic Manager alone meets your business requirements for high availability. If not, consider adding another traffic management solution as a failback. If the Azure Traffic Manager service fails, change your CNAME records in DNS to point to the other traffic management service.

Minimize coordination

Minimize coordination between application services to achieve scalability.

Recommendations

Embrace eventual consistency. When data is distributed, it takes coordination to enforce strong consistency guarantees. For example, suppose an operation updates two databases. Instead of putting it into a single transaction scope, it's better if the system can accommodate eventual consistency, perhaps by using the Compensating Transaction pattern to logically roll back after a failure.

Use domain events to synchronize state. A domain event is an event that records when something happens that has significance within the domain. Interested services can listen for the event, rather than using a global transaction to coordinate across multiple services. If this approach is used, the system must tolerate eventual consistency (see previous item).

Consider patterns such as CQRS and event sourcing. These two patterns can help to reduce contention between read workloads and write workloads.

The CQRS pattern separates read operations from write operations. In some implementations, the read data is physically separated from the write data.
In the Event Sourcing pattern, state changes are recorded as a series of events to an append-only data store. Appending an event to the stream is an atomic operation, requiring minimal locking.

These two patterns complement each other. If the write-only store in CQRS uses event sourcing, the read-only store can listen for the same events to create a readable snapshot of the current state, optimized for queries. Before adopting CQRS or event sourcing, however, be aware of the challenges of this approach. For more information, see CQRS architecture style.

Partition data. Avoid putting all of your data into one data schema that is shared across many application services. A microservices architecture enforces this principle by making each service responsible for its own data store. Within a single database, partitioning the data into shards can improve concurrency, because a service writing to one shard does not affect a service writing to a different shard.

Design idempotent operations. When possible, design operations to be idempotent. That way, they can be handled using at-least-once semantics. For example, you can put work items on a queue. If a worker crashes in the middle of an operation, another worker simply picks up the work item.

Use asynchronous parallel processing. If an operation requires multiple steps that are performed asynchronously (such as remote service calls), you might be able to call them in parallel, and then aggregate the results. This approach assumes that each step does not depend on the results of the previous step.

Use optimistic concurrency when possible. Pessimistic concurrency control uses database locks to prevent conflicts. This can cause poor performance and reduce availability. With optimistic concurrency control, each transaction modifies a copy or snapshot of the data. When the transaction is committed, the database engine validates the transaction and rejects any transactions that would affect database consistency.

Azure SQL Database and SQL Server support optimistic concurrency through snapshot isolation. Some Azure storage services support optimistic concurrency through the use of Etags, including Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Storage.

Consider MapReduce or other parallel, distributed algorithms. Depending on the data and type of work to be performed, you may be able to split the work into independent tasks that can be performed by multiple nodes working in parallel. See Big compute architecture style.

Use leader election for coordination. In cases where you need to coordinate operations, make sure the coordinator does not become a single point of failure in the application. Using the Leader Election pattern, one instance is the leader at any time, and acts as the coordinator. If the leader fails, a new instance is elected to be the leader.

Design to scale out

Design your application so that it can scale horizontally, adding or removing new instances as demand requires.

Recommendations

Avoid instance stickiness. Stickiness, or session affinity, is when requests from the same client are always routed to the same server. Stickiness limits the application's ability to scale out. For example, traffic from a high-volume user will not be distributed across instances. Causes of stickiness include storing session state in memory, and using machine-specific keys for encryption. Make sure that any instance can handle any request.

Identify bottlenecks. Scaling out isn't a magic fix for every performance issue. For example, if your backend database is the bottleneck, it won't help to add more web servers. Identify and resolve the bottlenecks in the system first, before throwing more instances at the problem. Stateful parts of the system are the most likely cause of bottlenecks.

Decompose workloads by scalability requirements. Applications often consist of multiple workloads, with different requirements for scaling. For example, an application might have a public-facing site and a separate administration site. The public site may experience sudden surges in traffic, while the administration site has a smaller, more predictable load.

Offload resource-intensive tasks. Tasks that require a lot of CPU or I/O resources should be moved to background jobs when possible, to minimize the load on the front end that is handling user requests.

Use built-in autoscaling features. Many Azure compute services have built-in support for autoscaling. If the application has a predictable, regular workload, scale out on a schedule. For example, scale out during business hours. Otherwise, if the workload is not predictable, use performance metrics such as CPU or request queue length to trigger autoscaling. For autoscaling best practices, see Autoscaling.

Consider aggressive autoscaling for critical workloads. For critical workloads, you want to keep ahead of demand. It's better to add new instances quickly under heavy load to handle the additional traffic, and then gradually scale back.

Design for scale in. Remember that with elastic scale, the application will have periods of scale in, when instances get removed. The application must gracefully handle instances being removed. Here are some ways to handle scalein:

Listen for shutdown events (when available) and shut down cleanly.
Clients/consumers of a service should support transient fault handling and retry.
For long-running tasks, consider breaking up the work, using checkpoints or the Pipes and Filters pattern.
Put work items on a queue so that another instance can pick up the work, if an instance is removed in the middle of processing.

Partition around limits

Use partitioning to work around database, network, and compute limits.

There are many ways to partition a system, such as:

Partition a database to avoid limits on database size, data I/O, or number of concurrent sessions.
Partition a queue or message bus to avoid limits on the number of requests or the number of concurrent connections.
Partition an App Service web app to avoid limits on the number of instances per App Service plan.

A database can be partitioned horizontally, vertically, or functionally.

In horizontal partitioning, also called sharding, each partition holds data for a subset of the total data set. The partitions share the same data schema. For example, customers whose names start with A–M go into one partition, N–Z into another partition.
In vertical partitioning, each partition holds a subset of the fields for the items in the data store. For example, put frequently accessed fields in one partition, and less frequently accessed fields in another.
In functional partitioning, data is partitioned according to how it is used by each bounded context in the system. For example, store invoice data in one partition and product inventory data in another. The schemas are independent.

For more detailed guidance, see Data partitioning.

Recommendations

Partition different parts of the application. Databases are one obvious candidate for partitioning, but also consider storage, cache, queues, and compute instances.

Design the partition key to avoid hot spots. If you partition a database, but one shard still gets the majority of the requests, then you haven't solved your problem. Ideally, load gets distributed evenly across all the partitions. For example, hash by customer ID and not the first letter of the customer name, because some letters are more frequent. The same principle applies when partitioning a message queue. Pick a partition key that leads to an even distribution of messages across the set of queues. For more information, see Sharding.

Partition around Azure subscription and service limits. Individual components and services have limits, but there are also limits for subscriptions and resource groups. For very large applications, you might need to partition around those limits.

Partition at different levels. Consider a database server deployed on a VM. The VM has a VHD that is backed by Azure Storage. The storage account belongs to an Azure subscription. Notice that each step in the hierarchy has limits. The database server may have a connection pool limit. VMs have CPU and network limits. Storage has IOPS limits. The subscription has limits on the number of VM cores. Generally, it's easier to partition lower in the hierarchy. Only large applications should need to partition at the subscription level.

Design for operations

Design your application so that the operations team has the tools they need.

Recommendations

Make all things observable. Once a solution is deployed and running, logs and traces are your primary insight into the system. Tracing records a path through the system, and is useful to pinpoint bottlenecks, performance issues, and failure points. Logging captures individual events such as application state changes, errors, and exceptions. Log in production, or else you lose insight at the very times when you need it the most.

Instrument for monitoring. Monitoring gives insight into how well (or poorly) an application is performing, in terms of availability, performance, and system health. For example, monitoring tells you whether you are meeting your SLA. Monitoring happens during the normal operation of the system. It should be as close to real-time as possible, so that the operations staff can react to issues quickly. Ideally, monitoring can help avert problems before they lead to a critical failure. For more information, see Monitoring and diagnostics.

Instrument for root cause analysis. Root cause analysis is the process of finding the underlying cause of failures. It occurs after a failure has already happened.

Use distributed tracing. Use a distributed tracing system that is designed for concurrency, asynchrony, and cloud scale. Traces should include a correlation ID that flows across service boundaries. A single operation may involve calls to multiple application services. If an operation fails, the correlation ID helps to pinpoint the cause of the failure.

Standardize logs and metrics. The operations team will need to aggregate logs from across the various services in your solution. If every service uses its own logging format, it becomes difficult or impossible to get useful information from them. Define a common schema that includes fields such as correlation ID, event name, IP address of the sender, and so forth. Individual services can derive custom schemas that inherit the base schema, and contain additional fields.

Automate management tasks, including provisioning, deployment, and monitoring. Automating a task makes it repeatable and less prone to human errors.

Treat configuration as code. Check configuration files into a version control system, so that you can track and version your changes, and roll back if needed.

Use managed services

When possible, use platform as a service (PaaS) rather than infrastructure as a service (IaaS).

Use the best data store for the job

Pick the storage technology that is the best fit for your data and how it will be used.

Design for evolution

All successful applications change over time. An evolutionary design is key for continuous innovation.

Recommendations

Enforce high cohesion and loose coupling. A service is cohesive if it provides functionality that logically belongs together. Services are loosely coupled if you can change one service without changing the other. High cohesion generally means that changes in one function will require changes in other related functions. If you find that updating a service requires coordinated updates to other services, it may be a sign that your services are not cohesive. One of the goals of domain-driven design (DDD) is to identify those boundaries.

Encapsulate domain knowledge. When a client consumes a service, the responsibility for enforcing the business rules of the domain should not fall on the client. Instead, the service should encapsulate all of the domain knowledge that falls under its responsibility. Otherwise, every client has to enforce the business rules, and you end up with domain knowledge spread across different parts of the application.

Use asynchronous messaging. Asynchronous messaging is a way to decouple the message producer from the consumer. The producer does not depend on the consumer responding to the message or taking any particular action. With a pub/sub architecture, the producer may not even know who is consuming the message. New services can easily consume the messages without any modifications to the producer.

Don't build domain knowledge into a gateway. Gateways can be useful in a microservices architecture, for things like request routing, protocol translation, load balancing, or authentication. However, the gateway should be restricted to this sort of infrastructure functionality. It should not implement any domain knowledge, to avoid becoming a heavy dependency.

Expose open interfaces. Avoid creating custom translation layers that sit between services. Instead, a service should expose an API with a well-defined API contract. The API should be versioned, so that you can evolve the API while maintaining backward compatibility. That way, you can update a service without coordinating updates to all of the upstream services that depend on it. Public facing services should expose a RESTful API over HTTP. Backend services might use an RPC-style messaging protocol for performance reasons.

Design and test against service contracts. When services expose well-defined APIs, you can develop and test against those APIs. That way, you can develop and test an individual service without spinning up all of its dependent services. (Of course, you would still perform integration and load testing against the real services.)

Abstract infrastructure away from domain logic. Don't let domain logic get mixed up with infrastructure-related functionality, such as messaging or persistence. Otherwise, changes in the domain logic will require updates to the infrastructure layers and vice versa.

Offload cross-cutting concerns to a separate service. For example, if several services need to authenticate requests, you could move this functionality into its own service. Then you could evolve the authentication service — for example, by adding a new authentication flow — without touching any of the services that use it.

Deploy services independently. When the DevOps team can deploy a single service independently of other services in the application, updates can happen more quickly and safely. Bug fixes and new features can be rolled out at a more regular cadence. Design both the application and the release process to support independent updates.

Build for the needs of business

Every design decision must be justified by a business requirement.
