The Sync vs Async Microservices Debate, Finally Resolved

Sync vs Async Communication in Microservices 🚀 | REST vs Event Driven Explained

Welcome to Backend Verse! 🌿
In this video, we’ll break down how microservices talk to each other — from REST APIs to Kafka Queues — and understand when to use Synchronous or Asynchronous communication in real-world systems ⚡

Ever wondered:
👉 How microservices communicate across services?
👉 What’s the difference between REST & Kafka?
👉 When to choose sync vs async communication?
👉 How asynchronous messaging improves scalability & resilience?

That’s exactly what you’ll learn in this video 🔥

🧱 What You’ll Learn
