Exercise - Publish and subscribe to events in Azure Managed Redis
In this exercise, you create an Azure Managed Redis resource and complete the code for a console-based publisher and a subscriber app. The publisher app sends event messages to Redis channels, while the subscriber app listens for those messages using a graphical interface built with tkinter. You implement core pub/sub patterns including direct channel subscriptions, wildcard pattern matching, message formatting, and background message listening.
Tasks performed in this exercise:
- Download the project starter files
- Create an Azure Managed Redis resource
- Add code to complete both the publisher and subscriber apps
- Run the publisher and subscriber apps to send and receive messages
This exercise takes approximately 40 minutes to complete.
