Overview: Imagine an e-commerce platform where users place orders for products. These orders are processed in real-time, and various services are invoked to handle different aspects of the order lifecycle. Checkout my blog post for more info

• Order Service: Accepts orders from users and sends them to a Kafka topic.
• Inventory Service: Listens to the Kafka topic for new orders, checks the inventory for product availability, and updates the inventory count.

• Poetry: Simplified our project management, ensuring consistent dependencies and a smooth development experience.
• FastAPI: Emerged as the hero for crafting efficient and robust web services. Its automatic OpenAPI documentation feature was a boon, providing clarity and interactivity to our API endpoints.
• SQLAlchemy: Enabled seamless interactions with our database, allowing us to model, query, and manage our data with ease.
• Kafka: Integrated seamlessly into our Python services, ensuring real-time event streaming and facilitating communication between our order and inventory services.
• Docker: Ensured consistent development, testing, and deployment, encapsulating our services and their dependencies into isolated containers.
