hard📝 Conceptual Q10 of 15

Spring Boot - Messaging

AMessaging eliminates the need for service discovery

BREST calls are always synchronous and cannot be secured

CMessaging supports asynchronous, reliable communication that improves fault tolerance

DREST APIs require all services to share the same codebase

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand communication styles
REST calls are typically synchronous, while messaging supports asynchronous communication.
Step 2: Consider reliability and fault tolerance
Messaging systems often provide guaranteed delivery and retry mechanisms, enhancing fault tolerance.
Final Answer:
Messaging supports asynchronous, reliable communication that improves fault tolerance -> Option C
Quick Check:
Messaging = async + reliable + fault tolerant [OK]

Quick Trick: Messaging enables async, reliable communication [OK]
